Dealing with the effects of experienced trauma can be difficult. Isolation, grief, difficult relationships, or persistent anxiety can be formidable roadblocks in your life. It may feel as though no one really understands your struggles. There is help available. Together, we can walk the journey of personal growth, symptom reduction and unraveling the difficulties. Healthier outcomes and an improved quality of life can be yours.
I specialize in trauma and anxiety recovery and am Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) trained. We will focus on recognizing trauma and its impact on your thinking and feelings, then work together to reduce the current ongoing negative effects.
Taking that first step toward a healthier you can be difficult but know that I am here to help. Your experiences, thoughts, and feelings are important. I invite you to contact me and begin your journey to healing and recovery. I am here to listen and support you.
