Somatics, IFS, & Nervous System Regulation for Individuals & Couples with CPTSD, ADHD, or AuDHD

A Neurodivergent-Affirming Somatic Approach to Healing Complex Trauma

Valerie Schrader offers holistic, relatable, evidence-based virtual support in Ohio & Globally

Let’s be real...

It's frustrating as hell to feel like you can't control your emotions, trust your experiences, especially when you've tried so hard to get past your past and deal with the overwhelm.

 

I often hear from new clients that:

  • They struggle to feel their emotions instead of intellectualizing them, something that talk therapy never helped them change.

  • Anxiety, stress, burnout, and hypervigilance overwhelm them to the point that they feel stuck.

  • They've tried everything, and yet nothing seems to change.

  • They feel like asking for help or receiving support makes them a burden.

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

We live in a world that teaches us to mistrust & suppress our emotions, pathologizing normal responses to trauma. That's why it's so hard to break old patterns. Your brain's #1 job is to keep you alive, and your body helps protect you. When you've experienced trauma, it'll do that in very unhelpful and uncomfortable ways by maintaining old patterns and triggers.

 

That's why talk therapy, journaling, and trying to "think positively" or just "take a deep breath" haven't worked for you. But don't worry... you're not completely broken!

 

Because your body is remarkably resilient. Somatic healing can completely rewire the way your nervous system responds to making changes and feeling better. This isn't about fixing you, because you're not broken, and shame/judgment have no place here.

 

My goal is to create a safe, supportive space to validate your experiences, express your emotions, and develop better coping strategies as we collaborate to unravel the roots of your patterns.

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).
