Hi Friend, Have you experienced anxiety, sadness, hopelessness, and worse, the unsolvable question of WHY? Have you felt much emptiness, loneliness, irritation, and shame? Have you been confused by fears of being alone, but at the same time felt overwhelmed by the idea of being around people? WHY? - Or wonder if you even remember how to live without heavy feelings? I know because life experiences and traumas have taught me to understand others' suffering.
Recent neuroscience has provided insight into how current or historical events influenced our minds and brain and shaped our worldviews and sense of feeling safe. This determines how well we do with our relationship with ourselves and others and provides a roadmap to healing.
I began working in the medical field in 1992 at the St . Cloud Hospital for 13 years before leaving to work in community mental health. I worked in inpatient, outpatient, school-based, community mental health, and private practice. I work with individuals and couples; I am a father of 4, husband, athlete, and animal lover.
