Through all my personal and professional experience it seems that the foundation for much of our suffering and of our healing is in the context of our relationships with each other. I have found that exploring and unpacking our relationship experience and expectations provides new pathways for healing. I love seeing people's excitement and relief as they better understand the thoughts and feelings of their family, their community, and even their own selves. May we find more hope together. Together may we find your pathways home.
The ideal clients will be looking for guidance, willing to learn research supported techniques for recovery. You will find professional help for issues such as : 1) looking for more emotional closeness with your partner or child 2) overcoming anxiety, grief, depression, and addiction from an attachment focused, brain based approach.
I have over twenty years experience helping families with complex issues. I find joy in helping family's to work together to overcome the troubles getting in the way of peace and closeness at home. There is always more potential for healing when treatment includes supportive family members and access to community resources.
