Trauma impacts us all. Some of us carry trauma from our childhood days, others serve our communities and country in vocations that inevitably hold high trauma impact, and yet others simply live day in and day out in todays culture of high expectations towards performance and low expectations on self. Any of these things can be traumatic enough. The good news is that there is a science behind trauma, and an even more specific science behind first responder/military trauma impact. All of the symptoms that often times show themselves from trauma are treatable.

Are you tired of feeling this way yet?! Anxious, unhappy, edgy, unsatisfied...maybe alone. Have you not been yourself and you can't stand it anymore.

Please don't wait until things get even worse. Like a car, a therapy "tune up" will get you back on track before the engine blows! If you are tired of how things are going and committed to improvement, it's time to do something.

Over the past several years, rates of depression and anxiety have continued to rise, with many exhibiting increased frustration and anger. Stress can significantly impact our beliefs, often distorting our self-perception and reinforcing negative thinking patterns. These cognitive distortions create a false narrative about who we are, influencing our emotions and behaviors.
With over 20 years of experience, I have provided guidance and support to individuals of all ages, equipping them with the tools to reframe negative thought patterns, release the burdens of the past, and make healthier life choices. If you or someone
