“Our ancestors knew that healing comes in cycles and circles. One generation carries the pain so that the next can live and heal.”
-Gemma B. Benton
Our Approach
At Ancestral Therapy, we support individuals in breaking cycles of ancestral trauma by reconnecting to the wisdom of their body, culture, and ancestry and we stray away from using labels and pathologizing human behavior because we understand that many of the things we struggle with-anxiety, hyper-vigilance, emotional shutdown, people-pleasing- are not flaws. They are survival adaptations that reflect what your lineage & ancestors had to endure, navigate, and survive.

Break patterns of generational trauma
