"The essence of trauma is disconnection from the self." - Gabor Mate

RMHCI, EMDR, Murray Method Level I & II

Is something off?

 

Do you feel disconnected? Pressured? Empty? Regretful? Angry? Stressed? Overwhelmed? Anxious?

 

Are you trying to understand why you do what you do or are who you are?

 

Do you know that you need to heal from past traumas, but are afraid to even go there?

 

Do you feel like you lack a sense of purpose? Or need to make sense of your relationships?

 

Are you deconstructing from your faith? Or needing healing from spiritual trauma?

 

Are you stuck?

 

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you are in the right place. These are the feelings and questions that lead my clients to me.  And together, we start the process of sifting through thoughts, feelings, experiences, core beliefs, values, defense mechanisms – all in the service of bringing healing, awareness, wholeness and health.

 

My therapeutic style is warm, compassionate, and directive, creating a safe place for clients to do their work. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques including Compassionate Inquiry, EMDR, Internal Family Systems and Murray Method with the goal to bring my clients to a place of awareness, healing and health. Together we will attempt to integrate your mind, body and spirit so that you can live the life you desire. I believe in the inner resources of my clients and know that you already have what you need inside to bring about real change, my training has taught me how to help you access it – but it lies within you.
