My goal when a client comes in to my office is for them to feel like they are safe to share anything. Most of my clients have experienced hardships or trauma that can be hard to talk about, but it's often necessary to heal. I am curious to learn about the lives people have lived and what has molded and shaped them. There are so many heavy aspects of life that we can carry. I take a holistic approach to identifying problem areas, understanding how the mind and body are connected in storing trauma, emotions, patterns of familial influence, and figuring out how to break out of cycles that limit people from living a fulfilling life.
My primary focus is trauma. I have worked primarily with those who have been through the justice system in an outpt setting, and spent time working inside prison and psychiatric inpt care. I specialize in understanding and managing sexual behavior problems, sexual identity issues, self-defeating thoughts, emotions, addictions, and impacts of incarceration.
Everyone needs someone in their corner, who can "get it," even just to help get the words out. My personal life experiences and a wide range of work experiences and clients have shaped me into a very empathic and open person, who is interested in hearing your story. I'd be honored to help you sort through the heavy times to get closer to the good times.
