1:1 Aaruka® Trauma Therapy

 

Heal for good.
For real this time.

 

There's a big difference between being 'trauma-informed', and trauma-trained.

 

Trauma affects everyone, but it doesn't just live in the mind—it lives in your nervous system. 

  

Aaruka® Therapy is a powerful, holistic modality that combines somatics with subconscious reprogramming, memory reprocessing & energetics.

 

From the official Aaruka® website:

 

"Every other approach in this space addresses part of you. Psychology reaches the mind. Somatic therapy reaches the body. Nervous system work creates safety. Subconscious modalities reach the programming below conscious awareness. Breathwork shifts your state.

Each of these is real. Each of these matters. And none of them is enough on its own.

Because you cannot think your way out of what lives in your body. You cannot bodywork your way out of what lives in your subconscious. You cannot regulate a nervous system that is still running on unprocessed memories. You cannot access any of it without the energetic dimension that holds it all together.

This is why one layer alone never finishes the job.

Aaruka® holds all of them simultaneously. That is not a combination of tools. That is a different level of architecture entirely."

 

 

Last year, I was one of just 5 Aaruka® Therapists hand-selected to undergo a deeper intensive, focusing on sexual trauma and complex trauma.

 

It is estimated that 1 in 4 people over the age of 16 in Australia have experience child sexual abuse. Yet there is so much secrecy and silent shouldering of years of shame.

 

Skeptics are welcome. I'm naturally skeptical too. In fact, it's usually fun to meet that inner skeptic and see what they really need when we do the somatic parts work....All I ask is a curiosity and willingness to go beyond the surface level.

Many of my clients are outwardly high-achieving and self aware, but there are uncomfortable patterns showing up in their daily life:

  • holding it all together professionally but snapping at their family or bingeing food in secret
  • a noisy, relentless inner critic that makes you feel too much or not enough (or the bonus, BOTH at the same timme)
  • feeling numb or disconnected from their body, especially during intimacy
  • self-sabotage and procrastinating the action you know you need to take to build the life you desire

 

Nothing is too big or too small, and I mean that wholeheartedly. You have full autonomy through the process. 

 

 Each session is unique and meets you exactly where you are at—whether you are years deep in healing, or you've just started to dip your toe in this world.
