About My Clients
I work with people who experience symptoms of trauma. This may show up as anxiety, depression, difficult relationships, lack of boundaries, numbing or checking out, to name a few. Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes and can impact us in unsuspecting ways. I help my clients learn more about their systems and ways in which they can heal from trauma. I work from a client- centered, trauma informed approach.
My Background and Approach
My background is in adult mental health with a focus on trauma. I spent six years working with Veterans experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, Personality Disorders, Bipolar and Moral Injury. I shifted into private practice focusing on root causes of the above diagnosis to meet the deeper needs of the individual versus treating a symptom. We are hard wired for connection and our early relationships very much inform our present relationships. Early, negative experiences can wire us for certain attachment styles that impede our ability to get our needs meet, feel connected and heal the deep aloneness pain. I provide education, tools, skills and trauma-based therapies to heal these wounds, whether from a single incident of trauma, or complex trauma derived from family systems.
