I help adult men and women who have suffered from childhood abuse. I am a trauma specialist and have been in practice for 40 years. I have a proven and specific methodology that works. If we work together, we will address the issues at hand and determine a strategy to heal. I do not believe in therapy for life. If you would like to familiarize yourself with the methodology I have used with my clients for years, you can look at my book, Carefrontation. It will show you the kind of work we do. Together we will walk through to the other side. Life can and will be different. I see it happen everyday!
My being a pioneer in this field, affords my clients the ability to change and move forward. I believe that therapy is a stepping stone to inner peace. My therapy has a beginning, middle and an end, and culminates in graduation. I am currently accepting clients, as I have availability. I offer group therapy, and individual sessions.
I know it can be difficult to start the journey to healing, or to commit to stepping deeper into the level of healing that has previously been unexplored. However, I have witnessed true and lasting healing and deep transformation for so many of my clients. It is what has kept me doing this for so many years.
