I understand what it is to hurt from trauma.
My name is Elvira Aleman Vaughan. I am a Christian counselor who works with adults who have depression/anxiety. If you prefer talk therapy I'll use CBT to help you get to the root of the issue. Or if you are open to trying a proven technique that is less conventional, I will use EMDR to help you heal and move forward.

Your brain is an amazing system that can process and heal from trauma.
That painful event keeps replaying over and over in your head. You can’t stop seeing the images of it. Thoughts of what you could have done differently play on repeat. They force their way into your mind, leaving you overwhelmed, panicked, and burnt out. The triggers are everywhere and anxiety and depression feel like they’re constantly looming over you. If you could just let it go maybe you could move on with your life. You no longer want to carry the weight of what happened but to enjoy the things you once loved.

My life's purpose is to hold space for trauma healing. I have specialized training in gold-standard treatments for trauma, and I have experience working with combat Veterans, first responders, and survivors of childhood abuse, rape, and domestic violence. Through these experiences, I have learned that humans are designed to heal from trauma, but sometimes we may feel unsure of where to start or feel stuck in the process. I am here to help you make sense of how trauma impacts your worldview, physical body, and relationships. It would be my honor to walk beside you as you reconnect with your intuitive ability to heal.
