Do you ever feel that you're living in the past? Do the thoughts, memories, and dreams keep coming back? Do you always feel that something bad is going to happen? These are some of the affects of trauma. Others can include panic attacks, anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders. Unfortunately we can't talk (or logic) our way out of our body and brain's response to trauma, and often we leave talk therapy feeling like we're spinning our wheels. There is good news: we can help your brain and body heal from the trauma so that the past can STAY in the past. Healing is possible, and I'm excited to work with you.
For the last 14 years I've been working with survivors of sexual assault, childhood abuse and neglect, domestic violence, refugees, and people in recovery. I am certified in EMDR, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, trained in IFS, and a certified yoga instructor. I believe in taking a personalized approach to meet your specific needs.
Whether it's your first time in therapy or you've been working for years, reaching out can be the hardest step to take. I'm so excited to talk with you about your goals and what therapeutic options might work best for you. I offer a free 15 minute consultation, please feel free to reach out with a text, email, call, or visit my website for more details.
