Let's be so for real...
Healing trauma is isolating, exhausting, inaccessible, and f&%$ing hard as hell. Especially when you have CPTSD, ADHD, and/or AuDHD! Which is why so many of us struggle in talk therapy, feel unsupported, and frustrated by the suggestions to "just breathe" when we're crashing out 😤🤬😭🫠🤦🏽♀️
That's exactly why this community exists!
This space is for doing the inner work, whether that's:
Managing your triggers
Unmasking
Learning to embrace healthy relationships and happiness (maybe for the first time)
Healing past trauma
Getting through the day without completely losing your shit.
The Reason for the Community…
👋🏽Hey, I'm Val! I’m a somatic trauma practitioner and fellow cycle breaker with CPTSD and ADHD, with a social work background, who specializes in complex trauma & neurodivergent-focused healing.
My goal here is to help break through the stigmas around trauma, neurodivergence, mental health, and cultivate an accessible community for people like us who are easily distracted, overthink everything, always feel a little anxious, overwhelmed, overstimulated, and hate peopling, yet really hate trying to heal solo!
"Being part of this community with Valerie has been life-changing. I’ve found a space that’s safe, genuine, and supportive, unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. It gives me clarity, confidence, and the courage to be fully myself."
🤔 Why Should You Join?
You'll get exclusive content every month and find practical tools, evidence-based and neurodivergent adapted healing practices, educational resources, and more. As a community member, you'll get:
🏫 LIVE Monthly Workshops – Knowledge is power, so every month we'll deep dive into topics like healing trauma, boundaries, managing RSD, attachment healing, narcissistic abuse recovery, hypervigilance, and learn practical tools to help you with them.
🎤 LIVE Monthly Q&A Calls – Struggling and have questions? Join in LIVE or pre-submit your anonymous questions, and we'll work through them together. I'll offer tools, guidance, and I'm sure we'll go off on a few tangents as well.
🎭 LIVE Somatic Practices – Healing is a practice, and you can't talk you're way out of stress, anxiety, and burnout. Join in for guided movement-based healing, combining grounding techniques, IFS, and nervous system regulation to help with emotional overwhelm and trauma responses.
👥 Group Chats – Crashing out? RSD hittin a little too hard? Having a breakthrough? Need to vent? In your feels? Wanna share you're latest hyperfixation? Share away in our private chat spaces for support, validation, connection, an accomplice (JK....kinda🤣), or anything else.
📑 Healing Printable PDFs & Workbooks – These printables are designed specifically to help you work shit out and develop better strategies to cope with well... everything. Think of them as mini therapy sessions but made for our brains!
🎬 Exclusive Content – Get access to a library full of mini lectures, guided trauma recovery exercises, and quick-n-dirty nervous system regulation tools because our focus is minimal, but the struggle is real!
📚 Resource Library – Find articles, book recs, trauma tools, mental health sources, and mutual aid/community resources all in one place with new things added every month.
Everything shared is focused on liberation, equity, and being neurodivergent affirming. Colonization, capitalism, patriarchy, and religion create trauma. You can’t heal individual trauma without addressing the role systemic oppression plays.
The Space is for:
Cycle Breakers 18+ who feel frustrated trying to heal alone and crave connection with others on a similar path.
CPTSD Complex Trauma Survivors and/or Neurodivergent Baddies - ADHD, AuDHD, or ASD (NOTE: you do not need to be diagnosed with any of these to join).
Those who’ve tried the whole talk therapy route and still struggle with intellectualizing their feelings, burnout, anxiety, repeating cycles of crashing out, staying up late to doom-scroll, and avoiding connections or actions that would improve their life.
People who are looking for a judgment-free space to heal at their own pace with a mix of guided support and self-healing practices.
Those who want to feel seen, heard, understood, a little less alone, and find some helpful tools to navigate the rollercoaster that is life 🫶🏽
"Valerie creates such a rare, nurturing space that allows for both internal reflection and connection. Each practice and chat 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."
THIS COMMUNITY SPACE IS NOT FOR:
Crisis Care or Urgent Help
1:1 support
A substitute for psychotherapy or healthcare.
Receiving a diagnosis for yourself or anyone else.
If you’re looking for a place to receive a deeper level of support, schedule a consultation for individual trauma support with me.

"The workshop with Valerie was life-changing! I planned to be more of a 'spectator,' but Valerie’s presence and insight drew me out, helping me identify the mind/body connection that was keeping me from peace. I now understand how self-care and prioritizing myself make me a better support for others, and I finally have the tools to clear my mind and body. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who struggles to put themselves first."
