If you are emotionally overwhelmed and unsure about future directions, talking to a trained professional can help. Processing thoughts and emotions can help you clarify your goals and plan your next steps. Traumatic experiences that have not been processed may also impact your ability to find deeper contentment and purpose. Triggers in the present that spark PTSD-like responses can impede your ability to move forward. I can provide a safe place for you to explore challenges, old and new. We can go at a pace that is comfortable for you and chart your path to more peace and clarity.
I work with clients who have experienced psychological trauma and have lingering effects of traumatic stress, including PTSD. I can help you work on strategies and tools to help with daily symptoms. I also offer targeted therapies to help shift the hold of traumatic memories.
Am I the right fit for you? Find out by booking a free 20-minute phone or video introduction call. There is no obligation to book further sessions.

Initial sessions are normally a space for my clients to express all they have been holding on to. This gives me a chance to get to know background stories and the interactions between them. I work with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression or sleep disturbances. I often like to leave my clients with an idea or two to help ground themselves as we explore and delve deeper into issues.
