Sexual Abuse Therapists in Wellington, CO

Life is hard. Hurt happens to all of us. Sometimes it is intentional, sometimes unintentional. When it happens, we are left with a wound that, if left unexamined, can affect every aspect of our lives: body, soul, and spirit. Lancing the wound can be painful, especially those wounds caused by trauma and abuse, but the compromised life that we live if we don't examine the wounds is often as painful as the original wound. Choosing to face the pain is a courageous act, and successful resolution requires a safe and supportive atmosphere with safe and knowledgeable professionals.

I believe everyone has within them the ability to be who they truly want to be. The world we live in makes being that person difficult at times because you are not often given a chance to focus on yourself and openly discuss the challenges you face. I think if you are afforded the opportunity to be empowered and given the time to channel your energy into what is important, tremendous growth can be made.

Whether you are struggling with trauma from the past or current, dealing with anxiety or depression that makes it hard to function in your everyday life, or have lost connection with yourself, life can get messy and chaotic. At these times we all can use some help because it is just difficult dealing with it on your own! I can assist you in reconnecting with your true self and learning how to use these hardships to develop the skills to carry you through your life. When you are ready to do this hard work, I am ready to walk beside you on your journey of healing. Caring for you is not a selfish act but an act of self-love.

No two humans are the same. We each have struggles and successes that no one else can completely understand. I strive to make every client feel comfortable enough to explore their unique experience. I will offer support and guidance, empowering you to make the changes you want for yourself. I can't take away your past or guarantee there won't be dark days in your future, but I can help you let go of the pain connected to your trauma, be it big or small, and build skills to prepare for the challenges ahead.

I work to create a warm, caring relationship, so that clients can find personal insight, healing, and balance. I encourage clients to work at their own pace and comfort level, using the discoveries and insights from a variety of fields to help clients work toward deeper, lasting emotional healing. I know that most people are not merely looking for a few extra coping strategies, but want real longer-term relief. If you are looking for more than another round of affirmations and deep breathing, I may be a good fit for you.

Revolving thoughts of sadness, fear, trauma, or even grief can make it extremely difficult to have hope. Day to day activities start to feel meaningless.
