Do you struggle with substance use affecting every aspect of your day-to-day life? Maybe there's damage to your relationships, ability to function, job, or career. Do you feel trapped by the inability to freely choose your thoughts, emotions, or actions? Is getting through the day without self-medicating difficult or impossible? Do you wonder if it’s even possible that your experience of life could be better? Now more than ever, so many people feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about retaking control of their lives because they don't know how; or fear keeps blocking their best intentions. No wonder you’re so stressed.

Have you experienced trauma or attachment wounding? Are you in a constant state of fight or flight or dissociation and shut down? Does your nervous system feel like your enemy? Traumatic events affect people in very different ways. One thing is certain though; trauma is stored in your body and affects your mind, body, memory, mood, spirit, and relationships with yourself and with others. There is a way to befriend your nervous system, effectively heal your past wounds, cope with your current triggers, and discover your own personal post-traumatic growth and resiliency for the future.

Are you suffering from chronic illness? You need a provider that understands the difficulty in dragging yourself through the doctor's appointments, repeated explanations of your symptoms, the long wait times for specialists and tests, and the struggle of having to find a new doctor because you aren't feeling heard.

You need a therapist who knows how the system works and can walk with you through this part of life.

Do you struggle with hopelessness, helplessness, anger, or shame? Does it feel like a battle to wake up each morning?
