Trauma leaves you feeling broken, damaged, and disconnected from yourself and your loved ones. Deep down you are struggling to manage your intense emotions. You tear yourself apart when you mess up. You may feel shameful and guilty with no space left for joy. You know when you try to relax all the thoughts and memories come rushing in. Some nights it might feel like there’s a DVD playing your most painful memories and it feels unsafe. You want to hide and can’t trust anyone. You judge yourself. You see the world around you is handling things much better than you. You ask yourself “Why can't I be normal, why can’t I get over it".

Together, in a therapeutic setting, I believe that by gaining increased awareness of our experiences and how we interpret the world, we can reduce suffering and find healing. Therapy is more than a specific modality; it is a space to engage in a meaningful relationship. Through connection and understanding, we can experience true transformation.
