trauma recovery for adults
Are you feeling disconnected?
not sure what to do next in life?
do relationships feel forced & empty?
Sound familiar?
I see you.
Maybe you feel like a spectator as opposed to a participant in your life, or perhaps you feel like you can’t relate to the other humans. You may be struggling to maintain your relationships or simply unable to form relationships. Perhaps you’re feeling isolated.
Whatever it is that you’re experiencing, you’re beginning to notice the impact of this in every facet of your life:
● Struggling to stay focused and productive at work
● Struggling to keep up with the demands of life
● Difficulty being affectionate with your partner or children
Trauma therapy can help.
It may feel impossible now, but you can reengage with life. You can form connections. You can be an active participant. And I can help you get there.
Trauma therapy helps you do many things:
● Working through your trauma can help you understand why you do the things you do
● It can help you learn how to reengage with others
● You will learn the tools you need so you can reconnect with your loved ones.
I’ll help through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach to trauma comes from a place of hope: you are not your symptoms and they can be managed.
I’m here to help with:

+ Self-esteem
+ Identity
+ Trauma recovery
+ anxiety
+ depression

We discuss your symptoms and then help you identify some ways to cope with them. I’ll ask you to be curious about what is happening in your body and to just notice it, which can help you to recognize when you’ve been triggered. EMDR sessions would involve us identifying some negative beliefs you hold about yourself and identifying memories associated with those negative beliefs. Then I’ll assist you in reprocessing those memories using bilateral stimulation. Bilateral stimulation engages both hemispheres of the brain using eye movements, tapping, or sounds to reprocess traumatic memories.

That is based on your individual needs. If either of us feel that you’ve made significant progress towards your goals, then we can discuss termination. Termination means you’ve graduated from therapy!

The first step is to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation. That will give us a few minutes to chat and see if we’d be a good fit. I’ll ask about your previous therapy experience and explain my approach to therapy and give you an opportunity to ask questions. If we decide to work together, we’ll schedule a session.
