If things are hard for you or your family, you are not alone. Are you trying everything but things still aren't working? Is your child struggling, discouraged or behaving in a way you didn't expect? It's easy to feel like you're doing something wrong. Not necessarily. Many children (and adults) need strategies that match their learning style, or that need adjusting as life changes. With challenges like ADHD, oppositional behavior or Autism, navigating the world can be even harder, especially in our current situation. I believe we all have strengths to celebrate and room for growth. You deserve the best life has to offer.

If you stuggle with PTSD or have a child with PTSD, RAD or ODD who acts out his or her pain you may feel shame, guilt and hopelessness about the situation.
My primary interest is treating different aspects of trauma and Post Traumatic Stress disorder in adults and children. Trauma takes us out of our window of tolerance where we function optimally and either leads to a fight or flight response or dissociative numbness. It can also lead to a repetition compulsion when we repeat various aspects of the original trauma or redirected aggression treating others like those who caused us harm. I have a great understanding of trauma especially related to attachment disorders in children such as Reactive Attachment Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder as well as PTSD in adults
