You don’t want a life defined by your past sexual abuse, but life seems to be spiraling lately.
You probably have your hands full managing your day-to-day and it just feels like life is throwing so much more at you than you can handle. It might feel like triggers and flashbacks from past sexual abuse have become a daily or sometimes hourly occurrence. It’s understandable that life can feel really overwhelming when you don’t know when you’re going to be reminded of past experiences where you held no control.
You try to keep up with life’s demands and cope, but it can sometimes feel insurmountable.
You might feel on edge, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or even rageful at any given moment. It feels like these reactions come out of the blue, and you’re tired of trying to keep up with it all. But deep down, you know that it’s not out of the blue, and that there is a root cause for all of these struggles.
You deserve to find a safe space where you can breathe again and return to your authentic self.
I help trauma, and sexual abuse survivors heal from past experiences that haunt their daily life. Together, we can work to figure out what resources will help you feel grounded and in control. With you in the driver’s seat, we work together to establish a plan to process the past that has held you back for far too long. After all, you didn’t ask for trauma to happen to you, and you deserve to take back your power.
I'm an EMDR therapist in Tampa and Phoenix, and here is how I can help.
My name is Kandace Ledergerber (she/her); I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Yoga Teacher*. Through EMDR therapy, I help trauma and sexual abuse survivors find the healing they are craving and shift out of flight or flight mode to find control and breathing space. I genuinely value inclusivity and support people who have been marginalized throughout life. I work with these individuals to build a safe space where they can heal from the past. I welcome ALL people into my office and invite each person to show up as exactly who they are because who they are holistically matters. I do my best work with people who align with these values and seek inclusivity in their own lives.
*Please see the bottom of this page if you would like to understand more about the roots of the yoga I have been trained in, the impact of colonial violence, and my intentions.
