Most repeated traumas are relational traumas and therefore, it is so hard to heal without relationships. Unresolved trauma can often look like anxiety, depression, anger, relationship issues, substance use, and physical pain. These issues can be extremely distressing and isolating. I believe that change is possible for anyone and the good news is that it starts with just one question: "Could there be something better?".

Let us then suppose the mind to be, as we say, white paper void of all characters, without any ideas. How comes it to be furnished?

To this I answer, in one word, from EXPERIENCE.” – John Locke.
