Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, in a rut? Do you or your family have extra challenges because of adoption and pre-adoption history, insecure attachment, trauma, loss, or other complications? For adults and families touched by adoption or trauma, unconditional love and ordinary parenting skills are not always enough to prevent negative behaviors, anxiety, or depression in childhood or later in life. Finding a therapist with special training in these areas can make all the difference.
I specialize in treating adults, teens, and children struggling with anxiety, depression, out-of-control behavior, high reactivity, dissociation, and the after-effects of traumatic events, including early childhood trauma. Therapy can help put the past in the past, restore hope, regulate stress, build resilience, and increase well-being.
It takes courage to ask for help. Through our work together, you can develop new skills and new understanding. What's overwhelming becomes manageable, enhancing relationships and increasing life satisfaction. Please call me for a free phone consultation.
