What I do is help clients identify and understand thoughts and beliefs they have that keep them from feeling good about themselves and get in the way to living life to the fullest. Each individual has a unique view of relationships and the world etched out of our early experiences. If those experiences are good enough, then one is able to meet life's challenges. If those experiences are wrought with dysfunction and trauma, meeting these challenges is much more difficult, and one may require the help of a professional who can safely facilitate exploration of obstacles to fulfillment. My expertise is in the area of trauma, particularly childhood sexual abuse trauma. Adults who were ab as used as children often suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression and particularly difficulties in relationships with others. I provide psychoanalytic psychotherapy that is trauma focused.
