Anxiety, depression, addiction, neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism, OCD), and traumatic experiences can all take away a person’s voice, understandability, and respect, especially during adolescence and adulthood. There are pieces to their story which a person can either block out, ignore, or fear. The problem comes when these pieces eat away at the person’s emotional, mental, social, spiritual, and/or vocational health. Building resilience involves getting that voice back, feeling understood, and respected in an inclusive environment.
Through my eight years of experience as a foster/adoptive parent, and thirteen years working in group homes/facilities, I found I make clients feel heard and understood enough to open up those wounds, connect them to their story, and give their voice back to heal. I utilize narrative therapy, CBT, somatic exercises, and the expressive arts to do this.
If you are looking for an inclusive, empathetic, and experienced therapist to work alongside you to get your voice back and grow resilience I know I can be that person. Reach out today!

Groups
Narrative Trauma Group
Everyone has a story to tell. Trauma, especially in childhood, can steal a person’s voice and push people to hide their story. Finding a way to own and to express this story can be a powerful step in building resilience from trauma. However, because music can be such a great tool, as well, we have a jam session at the beginning and end of each session.
