Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and loved ones leaving you in a cycle of pain? Or maybe it's difficult to be present, because you find your thoughts and perceptions rooted in your past. Clients I've worked with often show tremendous creativity in coping with overwhelming life experiences, but often these creative coping mechanisms play a role in their continued suffering. I've helped people like you understand & modify outdated methods of coping so that life can become fulfilling & meaningful instead of a painful struggle. You deserve support as you improve communication, set boundaries, and process past or current pain.
