It is such a privilege to work with people to identify, heal, resolve and shift past experiences and issues. When trauma interrupts our growing up or early adult life experience, we are often left with coping mechanisms that worked temporarily, or at least provided an anesthetic and bandage, but ultimately left us with an unresolved history and even bigger problems such as depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, relationship trauma and/or compulsive behaviors. You deserve to feel freedom, relief and release from these truths. Let's work together to find your path to wholeness.
