Trauma therapy that includes the body
Many struggles are rooted in a dysregulated nervous system — protective responses that can show up as anxiety, hopelessness, fear, overwhelm, shutdown, or depression.
In therapy, we identify patterns that no longer serve you, reconnect with your strengths, and build tools for emotional regulation, resilience, and connection.

Therapy for High-functioning women
Many women come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by the pressure to hold everything together, and it can become a space to reconnect with yourself, clarify your needs, and rebuild self-trust.
EMDR + Somatic therapy
EMDR and somatic therapy address trauma through both mind and body, supporting high-functioning women experiencing overwhelm as well as individuals navigating difficult relationship patterns or family dynamics.
EMDR Intensives
EMDR intensives are extended sessions designed to help you make meaningful progress more quickly than traditional weekly therapy.
They can be especially helpful if you:
• Feel stuck despite previous therapy
• Want focused work on specific memories or events
• Prefer fewer weekly appointments
• Have limited availability but strong motivation
• Are ready for deeper trauma processing
Intensives are carefully prepared and paced to support safety, integration, and lasting change.
“The most important sentence in the testimonial is highlighted here!”
A great testimonial is all about the transformation that someone experienced while working with you. (We already assume that you’re great to work with and that they were happy about the outcome!) What changed for them? How did their experience feel with you? What was the outcome?
This is a testimonial template for those very long testimonial that you don't want to cut because they're just SO good!

about me
meet Katrina Neville
Therapy with me is collaborative and relational. You don’t need perfect words or to hold everything together — we gently explore what’s true for you, uncover what’s getting in the way, and reconnect you with your inner clarity.
I meet you with compassion and respect while supporting growth at your own pace, reflecting patterns and encouraging steps toward the life you truly want.
My work is trauma-informed and somatically oriented, integrating EMDR and experiential therapies to support nervous system regulation and lasting change.
It’s an honor to be trusted with someone’s story. If you feel ready for change, I would be honored to support you.
