Our past experiences can have a very lasting effect on our lives & unfortunately don't magically disappear once we remove ourselves from the people or environment inflicting pain. The impact of these experiences can follow us for the rest of our lives if we don't take the necessary action to release ourselves & ensure a brighter present & future. These painful experiences can cause many issues if not addressed: relationships, depression, anxiety, anger, difficulty at work, etc. Often times trauma and health issues go hand in hand, or sometimes it hard to know which came first, the physical pain or the emotional pain.
Autoimmune disorders are on the rise & studies show they have a link to trauma & stress. I can help you learn to manage both your mental & physical health so that you can increase your quality of life. As both a Clinical Psychologist & a Certified Mental Health Nutrition Specialist, I can help you make the life changes needed to feel better.
Specialties: PTSD/Trauma, Adult Children of Alcoholics, autoimmune disorders, depression, anxiety, panic, postpartum depression/baby blues, stress related to new parenthood/growing family, adjusting to being a stay-at-home parent, difficult relationships, life stressors/transitions, & bariatric pre-surgical evaluations.
