You're in the right place

If you're living with flashbacks, anxiety, or a heaviness you can't quite name — and you're ready to stop carrying the past — you're in the right place.

Approach

## How I _work_.

Internal Family Systems begins from a simple idea: every part of you makes sense. Together we help the parts that carry old wounds _unburden_ — so your true Self can lead, with more clarity, confidence, and calm.

I also draw on psychodynamic, attachment, and mindfulness-based approaches — meeting you where you are.

More on the approach (https://elenacorral.com/approach)

What I work with

## Specialized care, _held with intention_.

See all: https://elenacorral.com/specialties

01 Trauma & PTSD

Primary focus

### Trauma & PTSD

For the imprint of what happened — flashbacks, hypervigilance, numbness, the parts of you that learned to protect at any cost.

https://elenacorral.com/specialties

02 Anxiety & Burnout

Daily weight

### Anxiety & Burnout

For the over-vigilant nervous system that won't quiet down. We teach the body what safe feels like — and let it stay.

03 Couples & Families

Relational repair

### Couples & Families

For the patterns that live between you — the loops, the silences, the longings. Repair happens in relationship. Gottman-informed, attachment-based couples work.

02

### Free 15-minute consult

A short call to hear what's going on and make sure we're a good fit — yours to decide, on your timing.
