Nothing needs to change in the circumstances or particulars of our lives to rest as peace. In fact, the more we attempt to manipulate and alter the particulars of our lives in order to experience peace, the further we will (seem to) move from what we want. What to do? Nothing. Relax. Give up. Release the grip. Resign ourselves to leaving everything alone, letting everything be as it is. We will find that we have always been standing knee-deep in the very peace we have been looking for. What a relief.

My ideal client is an adult, adolescent, couple, or family that has history of emotional, sexual, physical, spiritual abuse and wants evidence-based treatment that works. They are tired of "talking". I work with clients that want to learn skills how to regulate their emotions and not have their emotions control them. I work well with clients that want to understand why their body reacts the way it does when present day events cause them to feel like they are not safe, and anxiety is out-of-control or anger predominates their relationships. The client feels like they are always on edge, waiting or watching or something bad to happen.
