Every day I have the privilege of working with the bravest folks on the planet & none of you know it when you first walk in the door. You often feel defeated, overwhelmed & ashamed that you aren't able to "get over" your sexual, physical or emotional trauma. It's also common for you to have a nagging, chronic sense that something is just not right, an unhappiness; feeling unloved or unlovable, disconnected from friends and family, having lost a sense of purpose or direction. Without knowing that these symptoms may be telling us that a past trauma--long ago
is responsible for your current issues—anxiety, depression. I specialize in clients with a history of childhood sexual abuse. CSA is often buried in our mind, & for a good reason, children don't have the ability to make sense of inappropriate sexual behaviors & our brain takes us "offline" to protect us.
It doesn't mean the impact of abuse is not there, it means we may not be aware of it. It takes commitment & courage to free yourself from the effects of it. But it can be done. If you are a trauma survivor who needs some help processing or if you're experiencing some of the symptoms I mentioned earlier & suspect that trauma may be a factor, I'd love to help.
