Struggling with relationships? Experiencing the many ways substance use can create pain, whether for you or someone you love? Are you living with a mental health condition that requires support? Identifying limiting beliefs and unhelpful behaviors is an essential step to living an emotionally stable life, whatever difficult crossroads you may be experiencing. Often, emotional recovery begins with healing long-buried childhood trauma. And I believe relief can sometimes happen as early as the first session. (Licensed in CA, TX and FL.)
I use brainspotting, a technique developed out of EMDR, to help clients process trauma, difficult issues/symptoms and to get unstuck. I also use Gestalt, Somatic Therapy, Family Systems Therapy and, in terms of substance use, Abstinence Recovery support (12-Step, etc.) as well as Harm Reduction approach.
Life is not easy. And just because you may be feeling sad or lonely or afraid, doesn't mean you are doing "it" wrong. These emotions are guides, pointing you to areas that need attention and care. If what I've written here interests you, please reach out for a no-commitment conversation. I offer online and Walk-and-Talk therapy for adults and teens.
