You're here because you're hurting. Maybe it's from a past abusive relationship -- romantic or otherwise. Perhaps you had a neglectful, dismissive, or intrusive parents. Maybe you experienced sexual abuse. Whatever the reason, you find yourself anxious, numb, or just plain overwhelmed by your feelings. Sometimes you find it hard to enjoy life, the past keeps coming up. You find yourself wishing you didn't feel the things you do. You're afraid that there's something wrong with you because you can't get over it. I'm here to tell you that there's hope. Therapy can help with these issues and you don't have to do it alone.
Recovering from trauma can help you live in the present instead of being stuck in the past. Together we can create a sense of safety to make the unspeakable things that happened less scary. We can reduce the ways trauma interferes with your life. I can help you feel confident in your ability to work with your emotions as opposed to having them overrun you.
I've worked with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault for ten years as an advocate. I'm knowledgeable about these issues and their effects. I utilize approaches that build on your strengths. I work with couples and individual adults, I'm sex positive, LBGTQIA+ and poly friendly.
