We ‌like‌ ‌to‌ ‌meet‌ ‌people‌ ‌where‌ ‌they‌ ‌are. ‌Trauma can sometimes leave us wondering‌ ‌“what‌ ‌is‌ ‌wrong‌ ‌with‌ me?“ We believe a better question is‌ ‌“what‌ ‌happened‌ ‌to‌ ‌you?” ‌In our practice, we view clients in that way. ‌Everyone‌ ‌has‌ ‌a‌ ‌story,‌ ‌a‌ ‌story‌ ‌that‌ ‌makes‌ ‌them‌ ‌unique. ‌Our interest is in understanding what the story is and how to use a‌ ‌story‌ ‌as‌ ‌a‌ ‌strength‌ ‌rather‌ ‌than‌ ‌a‌ ‌fault. ‌Even though it seems easier said than done, and it also takes time, we believe any client, from kids to adults, can get there with patience and understanding. Play therapy helps that healing process.

I have worked with trauma for almost ten years and I have loved every second of it. People often ask me how hard my job is, and it is hard but it is also so rewarding. I love sitting with people in their discomfort and going with them on their difficult but very worthwhile journey.

This includes challenges such as trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship issues.
When we feel trapped in unhealthy patterns, painful relationships, or overwhelming circumstances, we lose hope that things can change. In this hopelessness we may struggle in asking for help. Everyone encounters pain, feelings of failure, and hardships, but that doesn't mean we need to suffer. Our work will aim at building awareness of emotions and thoughts, reprocessing past traumas, exploring how we connect and/or disconnect from them, and change the patterns that entrench us. My hope is to help you access healing and the development of your inner self.

My personal philosophy on trauma informed psychotherapy is based on western & eastern influences & focuses on a three phase model developed by Dr. Judith Herman-stabilization, reprocessing, & re-connection. In therapy with individuals, I work together to honor your unique life history & explore the impact it has on your functioning. In my work I have discovered that amazingly, the natural healing capacity of the human brain runs so deep that even the parts of our lives that are causing us difficulty can guide us toward healing.

Hi I'm Cameron. I specialize in treating sexual addiction, betrayal trauma, and PTSD. I believe that unresolved trauma is at the root of many mental health issues. As we heal from within and resolve past experiences we begin to find more peace in the present moment. I have found that talk therapy doesn't necessarily resolve trauma and that additional interventions are often needed. If you are looking for a very directed and focused approach that is geared towards finding relief from the symptoms of trauma, the approaches I use may be a good fit for you.

I later transitioned to focusing on childhood trauma.
Hello, I’m a therapist dedicated to working with men and boys aged 13 and up. In today’s society, males face unique mental health challenges, such as navigating toxic masculinity, addressing pornography use, and building close, meaningful relationships. Additionally, there are many barriers that make it difficult for men to seek and engage in therapeutic work. In my practice, I strive to meet men where they are, making therapy both rigorous and enjoyable. My goal is to support you in the hard work of healing and self-improvement.

Sometimes life spins out of control, leaving you hanging, wondering how to make the crazy stop. Just breathing is hard, and you'd give anything to feel normal again. Perhaps that moment is now? Taking the first step to get help can be scary, but it's worth it...because it IS possible to have freedom from trauma, isolation, sadness, anxiety, despair & other struggles. And the best part: you don’t have to do it alone. Our 1st session of therapy won't fix the problems or make them go away...in fact, our 4th session likely won't make the crazy stop either, but in time you WILL heal, regain control, & discover your authentic self.

Together, we will gently navigate the complexities of your trauma and life experiences, fostering self-compassion and empowering you to rewrite your story.
I bring hope, humor, and compassion into therapy with both individuals and couples. I believe deeply in our inherent strength and resilience as human beings. The thing I love most about being a therapist is having a front-row seat to witness people’s goodness, strength, and resilience in the face of adversity and challenges. I have experience treating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, faith transitions, and addiction. I believe that people are fundamentally good and worthy and that virtually all of our “dysfunctions” are a result of our adaptation to adverse/traumatic experiences.

I have 15 years’ experience working in various levels of education, and in the mental health field working with individuals who have experienced trauma and trauma related symptoms and PTSD.
Do you have that constant voice in the back of your mind that tells you how awful you are, that relentless one that won't go away? Sometimes in life we feel overwhelmed, detached, and unable to take care of our needs. We take these feelings out on ourselves and others we love. It can be difficult to face things, even if we want to. Regardless of our best efforts, we find ourselves feeling defeated and fear we are failing. This might be because you have difficult things in your life that are preventing you from being able to make the changes you want. Seeking counseling is a courageous way to find healing and peace in your life.

Trauma focused modalities include Accelerated Resolution Therapy that allows the Client an advanced form of trauma resolution.
As we navigate this human experience, it would seem that the only thing we can count on is change. Change can come in the form of major life adjustments such as employment, death and loss, deployments, school, being pushed outside of our comfort zone, as well as a variety of other circumstances that can turn our world upside down. What is important to remember is that you are not alone, and there is support to help you navigate through these challenging times. I am here to support you on this journey, and allow you to find solace and closure where needed.

I am an AASECT certified sex therapist and also advanced training in treating trauma.
Life doesn’t always turn out the way we planned. We struggle; we fight; we do the best we know how with what we are given. But sometimes we need a little help moving us forward in our journey of life. I believe it is never too late to “do life differently” and learn a different way—whether in our relationships or individually. People are resilient. Sometimes we just need to feel safe to open up, connect with who we really are, and have a safe place to process life and learn new tools. Having had lots of life experience, I am intimately aware of the difficulties and complexities of life.
