Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Granite Bay, CA

I'd like to commend you for making the effort to safeguard your greatest assets: Your marriage, your relationships with family and friends, and your own mental health. Given our current societal state of affairs and tremendous declines in other assets, most everyone is feeling stressed-out, emotionally and physically drained, and pushed beyond their limits. I think it is fair to say that a vast majority have found themselves relying on their survival instincts to get through these tough economic times. Unfortunately, our survival instincts only benefit us in the short-term but do not help us in our pursuit to find resolution to life's problems.

So many things can appear to kill all those wonderful feelings and the joy you once had, but these feelings can be restored and even built on. I specialize in emotionally focused couple therapy. It has an amazing positive impact even in the face of affairs, loss of sexual interest, lives too busy to connect, loss of intimacy, traumatic histories, and so many other issues.

Our Center helps anyone suffering from unresolved trauma or disturbing experiences. You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, panic attacks, insomnia, hyper-vigilance, restlessness, rage, exhaustion, fatigue, or dissociation. We exist to alleviate the profound suffering of those who have been traumatized in childhood or adulthood. Trauma is often not healed from talk therapy alone. We use cutting edge trauma modalities that access your primitive brain where trauma is stored. Through this, you will release the trauma and all of the physical issues that go along with it, and graduate with a freedom you have never known.
