Body-centered | Science-backed | Culturally-responsive
Welcome! I’m Sharlene Vanderblock (she/her), a Trauma Therapist in Boulder, Colorado.
I’m here to support you as you heal from complex trauma—whether you’re experiencing challenges with your identity, family patterns that have been hard to break, or the lingering effects of childhood emotional neglect. I work with a diverse community, including BIPOC, immigrants, and anyone seeking compassionate, culturally-affirming support. I believe everyone deserves to thrive, and I'm committed to helping you uncover the true, complete version of yourself.
Healing Beyond Words
Adult survivors of complex trauma often struggle to put words to the events that have shaped their silent pain, leading to self-doubt and emotional disconnection. You don’t have to put every wound into words to heal. Instead, I’ll help you reconnect with the natural wisdom of your body, so you can access the healing you need in a way that feels true to you.
Working together, you’ll experience a process that is:
✔ Collaborative: Built on trust, empathy, and genuine connection.
✔ Relational: Focused on healing within the context of your relationships.
✔ Depth-Oriented: Addressing root causes rather than just surface symptoms.
✔ Culturally-Affirming: Honoring your identity, lived experiences, and intergenerational wisdom.
✔ Practical: Incorporating meaningful practices that fit your life and your body’s rhythm.
Using evidence-based methods like EMDR and IFS alongside holistic modalities, I offer insightful guidance and practical tools to help you rediscover the parts of yourself that have been lost.
Together, we'll work to help you reclaim who you truly are, so you can move forward in life with authenticity, purpose, and connection.
