In my experience as a clinician, I’ve learned that academic knowledge alone doesn’t impact lives; rather, connecting soul to soul is the most important part of the therapeutic process. I am the therapist I am today because I’ve lived my own healing journey. My continued path of recovery from childhood trauma allows me to show up for clients in a way that I wouldn’t be able to otherwise.
I’ve been in the helping profession for 25 years, and I believe that most—if not all—of what we struggle with today is rooted in childhood trauma and family-of-origin experiences. When trauma isn’t dealt with, we create an unconscious process that drives our current thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Time can’t heal this type of pain. Fully processing the trauma—connecting with the felt experience physically, emotionally, and mentally—is how it moves through us and allows for healing.
My hope is to provide the support and resources necessary for those seeking true healing, as well as for clinicians who want to help their clients take the next step in recovery. Lasting healing and change are possible. I know. I’ve experienced it.
I offer individual trauma Intensives and other forms of focused trauma treatment for those who have done a lot of childhood trauma healing work but have areas of their story that still need to be addressed.
