About me
Feeling overwhelmed, tired, depressed, and hopeless? Experiencing emotional, visual, and somatic flashbacks? Always looking for danger in safe places? Even the strongest finds it difficult to enjoy normal life experiences when enduring emotional trauma. These events can take the joy of life and emotional connection with family and friends. As a professional trauma therapist, I can help you gain insight on traumatic events and uncover personal strengths. Through rediscovering your potential and learning new coping skills, you can find inner peace and a way to have a more positive relationship with your past.
My clinical experience is working with adult professionals, first responders, and medical professionals who struggle with substance use disorders, work, and childhood trauma. The goal is to help clients face fear, manage emotions, and break through obstacles leading to achieving life goals and personal potential.
Living in survival mode keeps us from enjoying a child's hug, the company of a pet, and deep spiritual connections with loved ones. Life is too short to remain hurt and lost. Allow me to help you process any emotional trauma that is standing in the way of success. It will be an honor to help you in the healing journey and restoration of your inner peace.
