Helping People With PTSD and Complex Trauma Discover Their Best Lives
It's my passion and privilege to help trauma survivors overcome life-changing tragedies. I'm dedicated to helping people make sense of the painful experiences that have shaped their lives.
Over decades of education and personal exploration, I've had the good fortune to put together some of the essential pieces in life's puzzle. As a trauma survivor and writer, I bring a unique blend of science, art, philosophy, and personal experience to help survivors heal from old wounds.
Our work will integrate your story's broken fragments into a healthy, cohesive whole, releasing the grip of trauma's hold on your life.
Trauma Therapy Helps Survivors
Decrease loneliness and improve relationships
Better manage powerful negative emotions
Improve self-esteem and focus
Cope with disturbing memories stuck on repeat
Get a handle on out-of-body experiences like dissociation and flashbacks
No, You’re Not Overreacting
Women, non-whites, immigrants, and those who do not adhere to traditional gender and sexuality norms cannot take their safety, freedom, and respect for their personal choices for granted.
I help people with traumatic oppression:
Develop better tools for self-assertion
Decrease feelings of hopelessness and powerlessness
Improve connections and decrease isolation
Cope productively with feelings of shame
Find healthy outlets for outrage and fear
But You Might Be Underreacting
If you have quietly endured trauma —life-altering tragedies like child abuse, emotional neglect, or sexual coercion —and are currently experiencing stress, depression, or relationship issues, it might be because you've never fully dealt with the past.
Taking a second look at past trauma can:
Help you feel closer to friends and family
Reduce feelings of anxiety and stress
Help you process difficult experiences
Utilize art, writing, and physical movement to express bottled-up emotions
