I'm here to help clients heal from their trauma. Tired of using trauma responses and skills that are no longer working? Or you are not sure what is a trauma response? Feeling so angry, numb, just don't want to think, feel or remember anything. The blank just isn't working anymore. The blank didn't work. Wondering if any or all of it was your fault. The answer is, it is not your fault. Learning to love yourself is hard for trauma survivors. I get that. Trauma healing is at your pace. Don't ever have to share what you do not want to. Nondisclosure is normal. One day you will know and feel that you are enough.
I have a direct upfront approach with empathy. I have tons of resources for client's needs as needed. I have years of experiences with developmental, and complex trauma. Having extensive experience in working with foster youth, complex trauma, the homeless population, addictions, and the reentry population. My belief everyone should have a safe place.
My greatest strength as a provider is being down to earth, easy to talk to, and being empathically direct. I often think outside the box. I provide tons of recommendations from books, and grounding tools to help clients to become their own hero.
I love working with professionals who are seeking to heal, and get unstuck in their life. My client's know that my belief is that the past is in the present. In order to heal, is to learn how to feel. I'm here to encourage my clients to discover who they are meant to become their best selves in life.
I offer the specialty of being trauma informed using psychoanalytic. Understanding the origins of the negative cognitive belief, relating it back to the present behaviors is apart of healing. The past is in the present. I use EMDR, talk therapy and mindfulness. I offer individual, couple and family therapy. I have a nonjudgmental approach with a safe space.
