The long term goal of Calm Seas as a whole is to support our Law Enforcement families from the start of their careers (DAY ONE) until they retire and move into the next phase of their lives. We are here to help through and prevent the long term affects of trauma, addiction, divorce, and suicide.

Effective therapy develops goals for change. Treatment also supports establishing new ways of experiencing life, behaviors and relationships. My private practice emphasizes making change through openness and trust, and building a personal plan that suits your unique life circumstance. There is no prescription for the length of therapy; some changes can occur with a few sessions and others may taken longer. Having realistic goals can help define when therapy is completed. Please call or email me learn more.

I work with individuals, families and couples. the majority of clients i work with are adults between ages 20 and 65. I have assisted patients in achieving successfully treatment outcomes related to Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, Grief, Socioeconomic issues, & Sexual/Gender identity issues. I believe in the importance of assisting you with improving upon your self esteem in order to help you succeed, realize your potential and maximize your quality of life.

Are you struggling with difficult feelings or a search for meaning? Are you struggling to feel affirmed in your sense of identity as someone different or marginalized? Are you trying to work through trauma, grief, loss, and other concerns with your past? Are you seeking to improve your career path or interpersonal relationships? Or perhaps you simply need a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to process your day-to-day stress. Utilizing a wide range of therapeutic approaches, I help my clients explore themselves to find resilience, healing, and meaning in their lives.

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Roksana Badruddoja. Family Constellation Therapy is a systemic psychospiritual therapeutic model that reveals the hidden intergenerational dynamics in a family/relationship/situation and the therapeutic approach works towards balancing/neutralizing/healing the system. Dr. Badruddoja has developed a distinctive interfaith/intercultural trauma liberation method—using family and national systems; phenomenology; existentialism; epigenetics and neuroplasticity; emotions; somatics; inner/outer childs; and genotraumagrams—known as Intergenerational Family Trauma Liberation Constellation or IF-TLC.

No one aspires to be in therapy indefinitely. My clients walk through the door bearing similar worries, but their real concerns often differ from their initial perceptions. They express desires to "fix my anxiety," "solve my depression," or "quit smoking marijuana." What they're truly communicating is, "I want to flourish, I want to deepen my relationships with those I care about, and I'm weary of these issues."

Looking deeply into your life, your struggles, and what gives you strength and meaning can be a transformative and a healing process. Helping people to do this is a passion of mine. Working to understand your struggles in greater context, changing behaviors or transforming suffering through insight, we will work directly with the feelings and roots of your struggles. We will work towards goals of greater presence with all aspects of life, and a steady foundation to live a life that has meaning, value, and joy.

I am a licensed sexologist specializing in sex &relationship therapy with SYNC Psychological Services. I work with couples/individuals on relationships, sex, and sexuality issues. Some focus areas include sexual trauma, infidelity & domestic violence recovery, feeling insecure in relationships/low self-esteem, sexual exploration (gender identity, Kink/BDSM, or polyamory/ethical non-monogamy), sexual performance issues (erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, low arousal, difficulty reaching orgasm), childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, & PTSD. I also have extensive experience working with individuals with ADHD & Autism.

Do you struggle feeling authentic? Sometimes it feels like we are wearing a mask in hopes of being accepted by the people in our lives. How much of your time do you spend masking? Do you worry that even a therapist may not understand you and your concerns? I want you to know that I am open, welcoming, affirming, Body Positive, Sex Positive, Polyamorous/Ethical Non-Monogamy Positive, and Kink/BDSM Positive! I believe in radical acceptance. I am a Queer, cisgender Woman and would like to help you take off your mask, embrace your true identity, and live life to the fullest! Life can be so much better!

I enjoy working with clients who have not only recognized that they may benefit from therapy, but are willing to show up, challenge themselves, and work towards the healing that they desire.

We live in times of unprecedented change and stress: A global pandemic. Extreme political polarization. Economic upheaval. Climate change. I am a friendly, approachable therapist who specializes in putting you at ease by offering a safe, supportive, relaxed environment where we can do our best work together. Whatever is troubling you -- anxiety, depression, relationships, sexuality, identity -- I offer insight borne of my long years of personal experience, combined with a keen understanding of the social, political, and ecological contexts in which we all exist.

Are you living the life you want? Stuck or unsatisfied in your relationships? Tired and depleted? Maybe you have friends, but find yourself wondering who you would really call in the middle of the night. Or your romantic relationship feels stuck, like you are repeating the same pattern over and over. We all know that deeper connection and intimacy are necessary for a more satisfying life, yet we feel that we are not getting what we need or want. Or maybe your pain is related to your job. You are working hard but not getting the recognition you crave. For many of us, we feel depleted or anxious and don't fully understand why.

At the heart of my work, I collaborate with you in tending to your emotional life, helping you build resilience while cultivating sustainable happiness. I work with individuals, parents, couples, people searching for healthy relationships, anyone seeking to effect change, and people overwhelmed by maladaptive patterns in their lives. Drawing from my training and life experience, we'll work skillfully and compassionately, together, toward achieving your goals. With a profound belief in the capacity for people to transform themselves, I can create a safe place to heal and grow.

Here to help you remember who you really are.

For those of us who do not feel loved and appreciated by this world, it can be difficult to trust ourselves and to honor our worth. Maybe the intergenerational traumas and ongoing struggles of our cultures and communities lead us to disconnect from others or to feel dissociated from ourselves. Maybe we diminish our feelings or hide parts of ourselves as survival strategies. When tangible systemic change seems slow or even impossible, it can also feel like self-love and joy are forever out of our reach.

**Free 30-min Video Consultation** Being in the circus taught me that juggling too many balls in the air can lead to feeling like you're always picking up the pieces rather than enjoying the show. While our emotions float up and down, we start applying binary labels of "good" (happy) and "bad" (anger, sadness, anxiety) that our systems (e.g., US Society, Family, Culture) has assigned. Improve self-awareness of our emotions, thoughts, and the stories we tell ourselves about our worth internally, with others, and in the world. Change the Narrative you've internalized through identifying, observing, respecting, and accepting emotions.

Sometimes, we need help and support to make a change in ourselves and our lives to feel positively different. Because of that, I offer a unique, individualized type of counseling tailored to what you want and need most. I work with young adults and adults managing life transitions, trauma, stress/anxiety, and dissatisfaction with areas of their lives. I enjoy working with motivated individuals who look to improve their lives, career paths, families, personalities, relationships, and sex life. No matter how big or small the issue, we'll face it together. Ready to be the Best Version of Yourself and have the life you want? Call me.
