During this time of the COVID 19 Pandemic, I am offering video/telehealth sessions.

I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma. My approach is holistic in helping people recover and heal after a traumatic event and learn ways to cope and manage when their world has been turned upside down from a traumatic event.

Trauma involves emotional, and cognitive disruption of one's sense of self and safety. Trauma of any kind can leave us feeling ungrounded and disconnected. A person's world view changes after a traumatic event.

 
Whether your trauma is new or from years ago, it can help to have a compassionate, caring person to assist you and provide hope in your healing process. I provide support, education, and a respectful, caring presence. I believe that you can heal from trauma and work through even the hardest feelings and once again live an abundant life.
