My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that YOU have the ability to shift your emotions and thoughts. Learned behaviors that result in maladaptive or validation seeking traits is how you have learned to survive through your trauma. Trauma is an experience that is unprecedented and immeasurably unique to each individual . Trauma shows up as an invalidating parent, a neglectful or abusive experience or a specific event, to name a few. In our sessions, we will work to understand not only the Biological and Physiological responses that are automatically activated and also how they effect your flight or fight mode. These programmed reactions create stress, anxiety, and depression; sometimes even self harming actions or can lead to substance abuse. I approach each client with compassion and validation to honor their past experiences while collaborating with them to create life they want to live; present and future. I look forward to supporting you on your therapeutic journey!
