Root Cause Therapy for Unraveling Trauma

Healing unconscious patterns carried by your inner child, nervous system, and belief system

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “Why do I keep reacting this way—even when I don’t want to?”

Or maybe you’ve tried therapy, read the books, journaled, made progress… but certain feelings or reactions still show up like clockwork.

That’s not a failure. That’s your subconscious doing its job—keeping you safe, even when it no longer serves you.

Root Cause Therapy helps you explore those patterns not just through insight, but through deep, body-connected subconscious healing.

🌿 What Is Root Cause Therapy?

Root Cause Therapy is a trauma-informed process that helps you gently access and heal the origin of your emotional and behavioral patterns. It works with the subconscious mind and nervous system, using light trance and guided techniques to go beyond surface-level talk therapy.

It’s not about reliving trauma.
It’s about giving your inner self the resolution and voice it never had.

RCT works with:

  • Limiting beliefs formed in childhood or trauma

  • Internalized shame and self-sabotage

  • Emotional reactivity and relationship patterns

  • Chronic feelings of being “not enough”

  • Fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses that feel automatic

🧠 Why It Helps ADHD, Autism, and PTSD

For neurodivergent and trauma-impacted folks, life often feels like a maze of self-protection strategies:

  • Masking

  • People-pleasing

  • Over-apologizing

  • Emotional shutdown

  • Repeating painful cycles, even with full awareness

Root Cause Therapy helps connect the dots between those patterns and the parts of you that learned them as survival tools.

It’s especially powerful when paired with somatic work or coaching, because it gives your conscious and unconscious minds a chance to work together.

💫 What a Session Feels Like

You’ll begin with a grounded, supportive conversation about what’s coming up in your life. From there, I’ll guide you into a light trance state (similar to a deep meditation or hypnotherapy) where we explore your subconscious responses to safe, clear prompts.

It might feel like:

  • Talking to your inner child

  • Releasing emotional energy from past versions of yourself

  • Rewriting internal beliefs with love and intention

  • Crying, shaking, or feeling deep emotional release

  • Gaining insight that feels both surprising and familiar

You’ll always be in control. You can speak, move, pause, or stop at any time. This work is never forced.

💛 For the Deeply Patterned Heart

If you've ever thought, "I know this isn't my fault, but I still feel stuck," this modality might be for you.

Root Cause Therapy can help you:

  • Shift from survival mode to safety

  • Rewire core beliefs that keep you small

  • Give voice to the younger parts of you still seeking repair

  • Reclaim self-trust, clarity, and choice

You don’t need to explain everything logically.
You just need a safe space to listen inward—and let the healing unfold.
