The reality is that at some point during our lives will need some kind of help. We take our legal issues to Lawyers, medical needs to Doctors, why wouldn't we take our mental & emotional needs to a Therapist? At times, journeying through life can be confusing & challenging. Life is all about connection to ourselves, a partner, family or Creator. Connection takes work! So, when we've run out of resources to deal with issues, we often feel lost. I'm passionate about supporting individuals, couples, & families address challenges associated with life & trauma, because nobody effortlessly waltzes into great relationships.
With 15+ years in the field, I'm trained in Eye-Movement Desensitization&Reprocessing (EMDR), Ego-state/IFS therapies, Brief Strategic Family Therapy (BSFT), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP) & Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I'm a Prepare & Enrich facilitator for Pre-marital support. I offer weekend intensives to get months of treatment done in 2-3 days.
Life's Path often leaves us feeling stale, stagnant &stuck. I've experienced this, too. The best kept secret in the therapy world is that good Therapists have had a Therapist of their own; because you cannot take someone where you're not willing to go. So, if Everything we do is an expression of our love for something; pursuit of healing is you loving you.

We'll explore how cognition &emotion connect to early trauma& how "the past paints the present". As humans, we all have "parts"& we'll explore your personality "parts" &learn how this shapes experience. Thru trauma processing you will learn to lead life from authentic-self
