When we are exposed to trauma at an early age, it can seriously impact how we feel about ourselves and our relationships with others. Trauma can also profoundly affect whether we feel this is a safe world and can contribute to depression, anxiety, and relational/familial issues.

I aim to understand clients’ internal responses and to provide more options for emotional regulation and problem-solving.
