You experience worry that is debilitating. You perceive threat that is out of proportion to reality. This is anxiety. Or you have experienced upsetting events in the past that make it difficult or impossible to live fully in the present. This is trauma. You may or may not remember what you experienced, but your body and your behavior are telling the story. Neglect, abuse, sexual assault, toxic shaming, or tragic loss has left you wondering how you can ever fit this experience into the way you think about yourself. You want to feel "normal." I can help.

Do you feel alone, unheard, unseen? Do you find yourself feeling empty or unsettled? I want you to know that’s not how you have to live and you can feel full of life and with purpose and direction again. When we think of trauma we often think of this big, violent event that has taken place in someone’s life. But trauma doesn’t always present itself in that form and it doesn’t look the same for every single person. An event becomes traumatic based the degree of distress our body and mind responds to it. No matter the type of threat or event, if life feels like a big struggle, you're not alone. You can have peace and be fulfilled.

I view counseling as an opportunity to explore areas of our lives that hold us back from truth, freedom, wholeness, and healthy relationships. I believe all people are broken, but our lives "make sense" in the context of our family background and life experiences. To me, counseling is about exploring that context to build self awareness as well as a space to learn new tools of coping and relating in an accepting environment. I feel it is an honor to hear your story and I deeply hope to create an environment that is safe, trusting, and conducive for the healing power of the counseling relationship.
