Trauma Focused Therapists in Bexley, OH
We learn how to see, value and trust ourselves and others based on how our caregivers saw, valued and were honest with us. When that relationship has been broken in any way, we develop an attachment wound. This break could have come in many forms, neglect, abuse, emotional and physical absence or inconsistent nurturing. As adults we act out our wounds in our daily lives. This leads to an inability to form healthy, connected and valuable relationships with ourselves and others. The impact of this is depression, anxiety, personality issues, trauma responses and a myriad of other issues.

You've had the same argument three nights in a row. Or maybe you're not arguing much anymore but feel more like roommates than partners. Somewhere between work, parenting, life transitions, and the noise of everyday life, the connection that once felt natural is now harder to find. I use Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples slow reactive cycles, understand what’s happening beneath conflict, and change the way they respond to each other in moments of stress and disconnection. We'll work to reduce conflict, rebuild emotional safety, and strengthen closeness and partnership in your relationship.

I approach therapy from a holistic perspective that mind, body and spirit all work together for total wellness. Clients that are a good fit typically are looking to better themselves, to find joy in their day-to-day life, or are experiencing a life transition. I strive to help individuals elevate their life experience, and am a personable therapist that cares deeply about each of my clients. I am also a wife, mother, nature enthusiast, dog lover and wellness junkie. Connecting with people and allowing space for others to feel heard & understood is important to me.
