I am a trauma informed Narrative therapist using EMDR as well as a variety of other techniques including unconditional positive regard.
You are not the problem, the Problem is the problem. While stress, conflict and even sadness are to be expected on occasion, they are not meant to be the ruling elements in your life. Many people respond to current situations based on past experience; positive or not. If you’ve experienced trauma (emotional, physical, sexual and/or racial) or chronic illness it tends to affect how you react to stress. It may cause you to be paralyzed, unable to complete a simple task. Do you desire a future where the past no longer rules today? A future where you are free to make the best choice for you giving you a contented and hopeful life?

I have spent many years working alongside those who have scars from trauma they never wanted to experience.
Are you struggling? Do you pray and hope for healing, but feel like it will always be this way? I know that struggle; it is what led me to create Alpas Counseling PLLC. It is my passion as a counselor and follower of Jesus to provide a place where the truth and hope of God’s word combine with evidence-based practices in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Scripture points to the importance of challenging our negative thoughts and beliefs allowing for truth to take its place. CBT helps break that process down into tangible and practical steps.
