There are times when to be human is to suffer, but in meeting people who experience the pain associated with past traumas/PTSD, stress, anxiety and depression I believe that we can lessen that suffering with a better understanding of who we are and why we behave the ways we do. By un-learning the habits that no longer serve us we begin to thrive by becoming the person we’ve always had the capacity to be. Your wisdom - mind and body - is innate: you need only recover it. This process is forged in the therapeutic alliance, and is founded on the warm, compassionate and non-judgmental attention that I bring to our alliance.
We must look at the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and try to understand the meaning we’ve attached to them. These narratives inevitably inform our beliefs and feelings about ourselves, and together by examining these stories and moving through the difficult emotions that arise, together we may develop new ways of coping, of living, and thriving.
I understand that it’s not easy to ask for help, nor to share our deepest emotions. But I also know that sharing our burden is a great first step toward growth, and in establishing a safe environment I will support you in coming to trust our alliance. At the end of the day, it's really just having a conversation about a subject you know most about: yourself.

I work with clients whose depression and anxiety arise from unresolved - and often unacknowledged - trauma. At first, we examine the stories you have been told about yourself and those you continue to tell, and then collaborate on new narratives that better reflect your true self. Depending on the trauma clients will experience relief within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

When we work together there will be You, Me, and the Problem in the room together. Our task will be to examine the problem from a variety of perspectives and once we have established those viewpoints treatment will involve changing your understanding of the problem so as to change your relation to it. From there it's not only your feelings that will be different but your behaviors and actions too.
