Past experience impacts present experience because in order to make sense of the world when we were young we created adaptive beliefs and behaviors to survive difficult experiences. Adaptive beliefs and behaviors from childhood do not serve us in adulthood. Any experience that changes the way we perceive ourselves, the world, and others is traumatic. I am a therapist specializing in the treatment of complex trauma & attachment wounds. I offer compassion, experience, & evidence based treatment models to support you in healing adaptive beliefs and behaviors and helping you feel safe in yourself and in the world.

Are you a busy parent feeling stressed by the demands of work and family? Perhaps you're facing the prospect of an empty nest and it is overwhelming. Maybe your mood is easily changeable, or life has become difficult, and you need someone to talk to. I am a seasoned psychotherapist who has accompanied many people on their healing journeys over the past 20 years. I find that mindfulness practices and hypnosis are additional tools that support people’s movement toward empowerment and freedom as they learn to heal and create a lasting sense of well-being.
