How can Family Therapy help you? Is there someone in your family that seems to be the center of all the conflict? Do you feel helpless or that your situation is out of control?

You just want to feel unburdened, free from the weight of your relationships, career struggles, past wounds, or even the overwhelming stress of the daily grind and routine. But your mind won’t grant you that relief.

I'm here to support teens and adults who are truly ready to put in the work. No empty clichés, no forced positivity, just real, lasting change.

Everyone encounters challenges and new situations in life. We all want to meet these challenges with confidence, and hope to have acquired the necessary skills along the way to do so. Occasionally, however, we find that the tools that once worked for us no longer do. We may then feel frustrated, unsure of ourselves and have difficulty moving forward. These very challenges, however, help us grow, develop a greater awareness of ourselves and others, and empower us to make good choices. A caring and experienced therapist can help with these challenges...

You’re the one everyone counts on—driven, accomplished, composed. From the outside, your life looks picture-perfect. But inside? It’s a different story. You may feel lost, anxious, maybe even on the verge of falling apart. You may lie awake at night wondering, “Why do I feel this way?” If you're silently feeling disconnected, depleted, or overwhelmed despite exuding success, you're not alone. Behind the confidence may be a part of you longing to feel real, grounded, and whole again. At Holistic Trauma Therapy, we go beyond talk. We help you reconnect with the part of yourself that you've had to bury to survive.
