Where do I go from here you might ask? You've endured a traumatic experience, maybe even more than once. You just had another blowout with your troublesome child or your family is in a spiraling crisis. You're in a volatile custody battle. Perhaps you don't recognize who you are anymore. You are paralyzed with fear or you don't know why you are so sad. Did that last explosive outburst of anger cross a penalizing line? I can help. I can work to help you function, to overcome a baffling obstacle or see a new vista.
I hold a PhD with a specialization in trauma and disaster and 4 trauma certifications. I work with adolescents and adults. I specialize in Adverse Childhood Experiences, PTSD, behavioral issues, relationship/estrangement issues, court mandated issues, depression, anxiety and complicated grief. I also have post graduate training in conflict resolution.
I developed the original ASH Program to help guardians struggling with their child's non-compliant and defiant behaviors, traumatic events, ACE, school problems or juvenile justice/DHS issues. I also developed the ASH Program for Shared Parenting to help parents learn how to coparent their youth in healthy ways after separation or divorce.
