Trauma and PTSD Therapists in 22206

Welcome. Through the hustle and bustle of life it is often the case that we neglect to take the time for ourselves to allow for self care let alone allow time to nurture our mental health. We sometimes forget that in order to do our best for others we must first assure that we are taking care of ourselves. My mission is to assist a wide variety of clients in working through issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, self esteem issues, and general life stressors in order to allow clients to examine and explore ways in which to live their best lives.

Ever felt that it’s overwhelming to try and fit the pieces of your life together? Maybe you’ve been working on the puzzle for a while but the picture isn’t matching the one on the box, or life knocked the puzzle off the table and left you to pick up the pieces, or you’ve used all the pieces but the picture isn’t complete. When this happens, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or ill-prepared for the ups and downs of daily life. Wherever you are wanting to feel more put together, it can be frustrating and exhausting to keep trying when your efforts aren’t having the impact you would want.

Society bombards us with expectations of how we should look, act, and feel in order to belong. We endlessly search for the next diet, workout routine, relationship, promotion, house, car, etc to fill this emptiness inside that's saying, "I'm not enough". We feel distant from our emotions, our bodies, and our true selves in this pursuit of external validation. This "not enough" feeling sits deeply below protective patterns that might appear as an eating disorder, body shame, substance abuse, toxic relationships, anxiety, depression, OCD, etc.

Each of us is here with a unique gift to be named, claimed and celebrated. That gift is often hidden due to trauma and heartache. My work helps you discover and release whatever prevents the full expression of your power and joy, which resets an inner compass to your highest destiny. Trama informed transformational psychotherapy reconnects you with the exquisite wisdom of your Soul, and helps you co-create the life you deeply desire. I work with individuals, as well as couples who want to create a fulfilling and passionate relationship.

Your treatment has a beginning, middle & end. I am trained and certified in many of the latest breakthrough treatments including EMDR and Brainspotting. I use these modalities because I have found them to be the most effective. The field of psychotherapy has come a long way since it began. We now know that it doesn't have to take as long as previously believed for permanent healing and change to take place. The term "neuroplasticity" refers to the brain's ability to change and rewire itself at any age or stage of life. Too often, clients participate in years of talk therapy and medication management without results.
