I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor whose primary treatment modalities are Somatic Experiencing and other body/physiology focused models. My specialty is creating a safe and contained space where deep shifts can occur, stabilize, and integrate. These deep shifts can show up as decreased anxiety and post-traumatic symptoms, decreased physical symptoms, a stronger sense of personal boundaries, as well as greater resiliency in the face of challenges. I have extensive experience counseling people who have suffered traumatic injuries, illnesses, surgeries, and emotional trauma.
I have trained extensively in Somatic Experiencing, a body/physiology focused approach to recovery from trauma and overwhelming experiences for the past more than 19 years. In addition, I am also certified in BASE (Bodywork and Somatic Education for Trauma Therapists), a modality that supports the physiology to heal from trauma.
Many admit that in response to certain triggers, they disappear into a bubble of shame, fearfulness, freeze, anger, shutdown, and/or panic. This response pattern can originate from an earlier time in life. We can address these patterns and support formation and integration of a new nervous system pattern.
