You don't really like to talk about your childhood or maybe you don't even remember a lot of it. You know parts were bad, the fights, addictions, mental illness, sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, maybe even the death of a loved one. You try to put it behind you but you struggle in your marriage and yell at the kids. Holidays are hard, and sometimes you wonder if it's even worth living. You overcompensate or try to be invisible, because that's how you learned to survive. You suffer from a sense of not being worthy or enough, but it doesn't have to be like that. Life can be good. You ARE worthy and you ARE enough.
Depression, anxiety, low self-worth, and poor interpersonal relationships, are often symptoms of childhood trauma. I am a client centered, trauma focused therapist with a big tool box and knowledge about how to use those tools. Odds are, you find it hard to trust people, certainly not enough to tell them the hard stuff. That's why I'm here.
I believe there are no band aid short cuts or quick fixes, but the work I will ask you to do is not harder than living with the pain of unhealed wounds. You owe it to yourself and to those you love and who love you. Please click on my website to learn more about my practice. I return e-mails and calls within 24 business hours. You are worth it.

If you decide to engage in therapy it is unlikely to be a quick fix. Plan on a deep dive into those childhood core beliefs that impact your behaviors today, without you even realizing it. The most common therapy we will do is "talk" therapy, EMDR, CBT, and some Internal Family Systems. In addition, I can provide on the ground (no riding), Equine Assisted Therapy.
