Breast Cancer Healing

Specialized Support After Treatment

Completing breast cancer treatment does not always bring emotional closure. Many women experience lingering trauma responses, anxiety, grief, identity disruption, and a loss of safety in their bodies long after medical care ends. These reactions are common and reflect the nervous system’s response to a life-threatening experience.

As both a trauma therapist and breast cancer survivor, I offer targeted support for women navigating post-treatment healing.

Beyond the Bell: A Breastie Circle for Survivors

This structured therapy group is designed for women adjusting to life after active treatment and addresses:

• Post-treatment trauma symptoms

• Fear of recurrence

• Body image and identity loss

• Medical and surgical trauma

• Anxiety, hypervigilance, and emotional overwhelm

• Reconnection to vitality, pleasure, and self-trust

Sessions integrate evidence-based trauma approaches, nervous system regulation, guided processing, and gentle embodied practices within a supportive community of fellow survivors.

Breast Cancer Trauma Intensives

Private, Focused Trauma Treatment

For women experiencing persistent distress related to diagnosis or treatment, I offer extended trauma intensives utilizing EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting, somatic, and attachment-based therapies.

Intensives are helpful for:

• Medical or procedural trauma

• Stuck or intrusive treatment memories

• Panic, fear, or dysregulation in the body

• Ongoing survival-mode responses

• Recurrence anxiety

• Grief and identity disruption

These sessions provide deeper, accelerated healing beyond traditional weekly therapy.

Breast cancer impacts far more than the physical body. Psychological and nervous system healing is a critical and often overlooked part of survivorship. You deserve support for this phase of recovery.
