Healing After Narcissistic Abuse – Reclaiming Your Power and Peace
Healing from Codependency & Narcissistic Abuse
Are you weary of carrying shame or guilt that doesn’t belong to you?
Have you reached the point where you no longer wish to be mistreated, dismissed, or made to feel small?
Do you sense a deeper part of you—the wise, sacred self within—calling for freedom?
What you’re experiencing is often called codependency, yet beneath that label lies something profoundly human: the loss of connection to your own essence. When you’ve learned to love by caretaking, appeasing, or over-functioning, your nervous system begins to equate love with survival. Over time, this draws in relationships that replay old wounds—often with narcissistic or emotionally unavailable partners.
You are not broken. You are remembering who you ar
Understanding Narcissistic Abuse
Emotional manipulation and gaslighting erode trust and identity, leaving deep imprints on the nervous system. Healing begins by naming what happened and remembering — it was never your fault.
The Chrysalis of Healing
• True healing is not about fixing yourself—it’s about returning to yourself.
• Like the chrysalis that softens before the butterfly emerges, you’re being invited into transformation—one that dissolves old survival stories and allows your authentic self to unfold.
• Through Integrative Therapy, we will explore:
• Reclaiming your self-worth as sacred and inherent
• Developing embodied boundaries grounded in compassion, not fear
• Regulating your nervous system with breath, mindfulness, and polyvagal-based practices
• Releasing patterns of guilt and self-abandonment
• Cultivating relationships that reflect mutual respect, safety, and soul resonance
Restoring the Nervous System
Somatic and trauma-informed therapy help your body unlearn survival patterns. Together, we rebuild safety, calm, and self-regulation so your system can finally rest and heal.
Reclaiming Boundaries and Truth
Boundaries are acts of self-love. You learn to listen to your intuition, express your needs clearly, and protect your peace without guilt or fear.
Transforming Pain into Wisdom
The journey is alchemical — you transmute betrayal into clarity, pain into empowerment, and self-doubt into grounded self-worth.
Living from Wholeness
MIND • BODY • SPIRIT
As you reconnect with your authentic self, you move from surviving to thriving — cultivating relationships that reflect mutual respect, love, and emotional safety.
