Accepting Clients! Do you struggle with feeling happy, communicating clearly, or building fulfilling relationships? Do you wonder how past trauma is still affecting you? Understanding your past can be the key to your future! Together, we will explore issues such as survival of interpersonal violence, an addicted parent, witnessing a violent event, natural disasters and other traumatic events that have contributed to your addictive behaviors, mental illness, or unhealthy relationships. With this knowledge we will discuss healthy coping skills, building a support network, and planning for safety in the face of your triggers.
I use creative methods to access the "why" behind unhealthy behaviors. Therapy doesn't have to be what you see in TV or movies. It may involve music, sand play, psychodrama, or even, ironically, watching tv and movies! I use a person-centered approach based in Acceptance and Commitment, Cognitive Behavioral, DBT, and Narrative therapies. Now offering EMDR!
When I read my first book on trauma I understood that people are not born bad, they are merely surviving, living every day trapped in the pain of a traumatic past. Together, we can navigate the pain of living with a painful trauma history and work to build the skills necessary to finally break the cycle, freeing you to live the life you were meant to love!
