I specialize in trauma recovery and deep emotional healing. Most of my clients suffer from C/PTSD and have found themselves stuck in a loop of feeling emotionally overwhelmed to the other extreme of numbing out completely. In the world of trauma, people, places and situations get distorted and there is no place that feels safe, especially within your own body. Trauma also comes at a great cost: grief from time that has been lost, the loss of Self and how it impacts relationships. It is not easy to heal from the impacts of trauma and the first critical step is finding a therapist who is highly specialized in trauma healing.
I have over 30 years of clinical experience and have taken many advanced trainings in healing trauma. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist as well as an IFS Therapist (Internal Family System). Both of these treatment modalities have been proven to be very effective at healing the symptoms of trauma. Please review my website for more info on EMDR and IFS.
If you choose to work with me, please know you would be working with a seasoned, highly experienced therapist who will be taking this healing journey with you. This journey is not meant to be solo. I will be with you every step of the way, gently reminding you that you CAN heal and, most importantly, that you deserve to heal.
