My focus is in helping individual adults and couples to heal from the direct and indirect effects of trauma and build healthy lives and relationships. Trauma shows up in many ways, some obvious and some not realized to be trauma by the person or people going through it. It can have many effects, including fear, anxiety, depression, numbness, chronic pain, negative thoughts, anger, feeling out of control, feeling like it's your fault, not feeling normal, feeling a sense of needing to keep busy, panic, self-harm, relationship difficulties, family difficulties, shutting down, isolating, or being uncomfortable being alone.
I work with somatic, emotionally-focused, family systems, PRT, and skills-based approaches. I collaborate with clients to tailor my approach to what works best for each individual. We share things in common, we are each individuals, we each have a story, and we all want to be seen, be heard, heal, and be honored for who we are.
If it sounds like I can help you, I invite you to contact me to set up a phone consultation, ask me questions, talk about your needs, hopes, and goals, and see if we're a good fit. My sessions for California clients are online only by video through Zoom.
