I have worked as a counselor and clinical director for over 30 years. I specialize in healing PTSD, Religious Trauma, and variations of trauma. I can help you to resolve panic attacks, anxiety, and sexual abuse without medications; I also specialize in couples counseling, depression, and can help you to stop nightmares without the use of medications. I have a strong background in cross-cultural psychology, having lived in 8 countries and studied the nature of consciousness as a monastic for six years; this has given me a diverse and complex perspective on life and people. I currently live in Cambodia, Thailand and the US.
If you have tried traditional talk therapy and it has not been very effective, I offer you a scientific, cutting edge approach called somatic psychology which has been proven to be far more effective at treating trauma and panic attacks than any talk therapy. I also have extensive training in both western psychology as well as liberation psychology.
Unlike most therapists who are very guarded, I do not expect anything from you I have not done myself and you can ask me anything you like about my own life to verify my authenticity. Integrity as at the core of how we work together so that you are more likely to be freed from what you are experiencing.

"
I use somatic psychology because trauma is stored in the body, not just the mind. Talk therapy can bring insight, but somatic work helps regulate the nervous system, release chronic tension, and restore a felt sense of safety. This body-based approach is often more effective for anxiety and trauma than insight alone.
