My clients want to be free from past grief and
trauma
and feel more confident about how they handle their current life's challenges.
COVID-19 RELIEF SESSIONS NOW OFFERED. CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION ON IMMEDIATE, NON PRESCRPTION, STRESS REDUCTION SESSIONS. When looking for a therapist, you have to weigh the pros and cons like looking for the perfect shoes for your perfect outfit. If they match perfectly but hurt your feet, how often will you wear them? Do you care about the pain as long as you look good? Or is comfort your main goal? This is usually a good place to start, just like finding your practitioner. Do you interview your therapist first? Do you know what to ask in order to know if you can have a good fit?

You make sense in the context of your own story. Many of us suffer from complex
trauma
which comes from repeated experiences in childhood when we felt helpless or unable to control what happened to us. The way you perceive yourself & the world is a direct result of what's happening in your nervous system: your thoughts, your feelings, your behaviors, your health, your relationships. This often leads to anxiety, depression, burnout, relational issues, & low self-esteem. You CAN heal and reconnect with your most authentic self. I strive to create a warm, comfortable, and safe environment as we embark on your healing journey together.

I focus on helping clients with a history of
trauma
, depression and anxiety.
Unsure of why you just can’t seem to get past distressing events that have occurred in your life? You’ve waited, and hoped that time would cure all, or you would learn to live with it. Perhaps you tried making changes on your own but feel no different. You've noticed that the cycle continues, and the negative beliefs, feelings of guilt, shame and vulnerability resurface. I believe whatever does not heal itself, will repeat itself. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive and honest space in order to help you identify, process, reflect, and ultimately heal.

Please be advised, I currently have a waiting list. I enjoy working with clients who are seeking change in their lives because they have either experienced a recent event that has caused stress, depression, and/or anxiety, or they are recognizing their need to address past
trauma
in order to move forward in their lives to become the best version of themselves. All individuals have life experiences, both traumatic and positive, that shape their worldview and how they live their lives. These experiences are interwoven into all our relationships, jobs, parenting, and daily interactions.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
