Are you struggling with your teenager or child with behaviour issues? Believe that you may be dealing with ADHD/ASD but not sure where to find an assessment or if you could afford it? Having difficulty coping with life changes (divorce/separation, mood management, menopause, recent job change or retirement) and would like to figure out what direction to take or how best to sort these out? Have you had trauma from the past that you tried hard to "forget about," but it just seems to play a role in your life still? I bring decades of experience in the field specializing in these areas in my private office by the sea to help you.

It is individualized for each person, but in general, trauma work can be like opening up a wound that had not healed properly. It hurts at first, worse, but then it heals and you find yourself free. The things that linger are the beliefs, memories and triggers that find their way into life that create other issues (relationship problems, mood issues) that we also address.
