Real Talk. Real Healing. Real Change.

Trauma-Informed IFS and Somatic Healing for Neurospicy Cycle Breakers

To me, the bravest people in the world are the ones who say F&%$ this to the patterns passed down to them

And the fact that you’re here tells me you’re brave as hell!

So welcome and I’m happy you’re here. My goal is to give you a space where you can take off the mask, open up, and break free from all that overthinking, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, and stress. I’m here to provide real talk and real solutions with a very down-to-earth, non-judgy approach.

As a fellow neurospicy baddie with ADHD and CPTSD, I know you’ve got great awareness of your issues and you’ve probably gone as far as you can in talk therapy or with whatever healing work you’ve tried solo. I also know how frustrating it is when you’re still struggling with the same issues.

My approach is adapted for neurodivergent brains so instead of trying to “fix” you, I’m here to help you get to the root cause of underlying patterns and create solutions that work WITH YOU! That means repairing the relationship with your nervous system, healing your inner child, and developing the right coping skills to go beyond survival mode and into enjoying your damn life!

You know where you’ve been, now’s your chance to live in a way you didn’t think possible

"I can’t say enough about Valerie’s approach. She’s the first person I’ve worked with who sees and supports me for who I am. Her guidance is rooted in care and practicality, creating change that doesn’t overwhelm but truly lasts. Working with her feels safe, grounded, and aligned with my pace and my values. This work has transformed how I show up for myself in ways I never thought possible."

Hey! I’m Val (or Valerie),

Your friendly, slightly feral Somatic Trauma Practitioner. I’m here to help you navigate the anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and endless cycles that make you feel like you’re failing at healing.

My approach blends nervous system repair, Inner Child Healing (IFS), and somatic practices adapted for neurospicy minds. I take a more down-to-earth, real-talk approach to this work because I wanna help you get to the root of the issues you're dealing with.

Beyond that, I wanna help you get past your struggles and develop strategies that make you feel more in control and get out of overthinking and overanalyzing to find some real peace (even in this chaotic world).

Whether you’re working with me 1:1, in my Somatic Healing Circle, or a part of the Feral Cycle Breakers Community, we’re in this together and I’m here to help you connect the dots and find a path forward that meets you where you’re at.

What My Clients Are Saying…

  • Nadia

    "I would wholeheartedly recommend Valerie Schrader. She takes a truly unique approach, focusing on your intuitive pace and creating sustainable success, rather than pushing quick, one-size-fits-all solutions. Her guidance is practical and trauma-informed, with a gentleness that works with your nervous system, not against it. She’s honest, caring, and truly invested in your long-term well-being.. Working with Valerie has been a game-changer, and I can’t recommend her enough."

  • Mariah

    "In therapy, I used to intellectualize my issues, trying to 'fix' myself through understanding my past. With Valerie, I learned self-acceptance, tuning into my mind and body to make mindful decisions in the present. Her coaching encouraged me to connect with my own intuition and inner guidance.Therapy helped with surface-level understanding, but working with Valerie brought me to a place of self-trust and clarity. I’m perpetually grateful for the growth I’ve achieved with her."

  • Joely, Clinical Social Worker and Trauma Therapist

    "Valerie creates such a rare, nurturing space that allows for both internal reflection and connection. Each workshop balances self-regulation with communal support, where we can explore ourselves without judgment. It’s a space for real healing that speaks to the senses and connects the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual."
