There are many things in life that cause emotional distress and it is natural to try to minimize their impact on you, but if you are struggling to move on I would like to help. Whether it is a major life change or an everyday struggle there is no need to suffer emotional pain or distress. I will join you as a partner in healing to process life's changes and challenges on a path to healing. I will work with you at your pace in a safe, comfortable setting. Sober support for people in recovery.
I provide general counseling services but have expertise in trauma therapy, grief/ loss and relationship challenges. For over a decade I have focused on working with adult survivors of childhood physical/sexual abuse. What causes traumatic reactions varies from person to person. If you are feeling traumatized by a life event there is help.
Experience with PTSD resulting from Rape/Sexual Assault, Childhood abuse, family violence, car accidents and other violent crimes. Sober support for people in recovery.
