I have extensive experiences in working with individuals who had painful experiences and continue to suffer from these memories. My goal is not only to treat trauma symptoms, but to help people grow from their painful experiences. Through my treatment, you can overcome any negative thoughts associated with trauma and gain trust and confidence in people and yourself. My approach includes evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), such as Prolonged Exposure and STAIR/NST. You will learn many tools to manage your trauma related symptoms, which can be used after my treatment.

You wake up in the morning and can barely open your eyes before the panic hits. Your thoughts begin racing, your heart starts to pound, and you struggle to breathe. Trying to calm yourself down is no use, and you begin to wonder if there’s something physically wrong with you. You hate feeling like you have no control over your emotions. So you move through each day on edge, trying your best to avoid anything that might trigger your anxiety. Hiding behind a shield, never engaging with the outside world. You know there’s more out there for you and want the confidence to embrace everything life has to offer, but you’re scared.

Relationships between husbands, wives, lovers, boy/girl friends, children or parents can be tricky. Happy, satisfying and fulfilling relationships require attention, energy, fun, humor, communication, time and investment of yourself. Too often relationships are hampered by misunderstandings, hurtful actions, stress, differences of opinions, unmet needs, and different expectations. Personality changes over time, affairs of the heart, infidelity, unmet sexual intimacy, abuse, cruel words, neglect, self-centeredness, different communication styles, different goals, values and dissimilar interests or fun activities also create unhappiness in relationships.
