Sometimes when the world feels overwhelming, we don't connect how past abuse has led us to emotions that feel out of control. It's like when stress builds up over lots of little things and you finally snap at someone you care about in a way you didn't mean. Or feeling overly tired of trying to live in this world because every choice you make seems hard and a large amount of effort. These are things I can help with. Additionally - if you are struggling with your significant other, like feeling not heard, or having problems in the bedroom, or feeling like you are carrying more than your share; we can work on this together.
I understand these issues having been exposed to a lot of these difficulties throughout my own life, I know what it looks and feels like. But I've received training in programs that can help you and give you tools and relief to feel improvement. I work with modalities like EMDR, CBT, DBT, Gottman and Motivational Interviewing.
Sometimes, life can be brutal. There are so many ways we can be smacked down and run over leaving us feeling worn out, wrung out and in denial. But you don't have to shoulder these burdens alone. Not only can I take the time to hear your troubles, but I also am able to recognize patterns and help you find resolution. https://youtu.be/g8cmxdJ-yF0

My main modalities tend to be talk therapy - focusing on compassion, CBT and reframing - while also incorporating Internal Family Systems (working with parts of self) - level 1 trained) and processing with EMDR/Flash/4blinks for somatic release. I am also trained in working with dv offenders/anger management - which is reflected in my perspectives. I'm also starting a D&D therapy group.
