Life can be Hard—Healing Doesn’t Have to Be

You’re an achiever, but struggle to find happiness.

You’ve done lots of great things in your life. You SHOULD be happy. Maybe you struggle with your personal relationships, but thrive at work, kind of. You can’t quite figure out why nothing ever feels enough. Let’s figure it out together. There has to be a reason. I’ll help you find it.

Acute and Complex Trauma

Have you had something really bothersome happen? It could be you…

  • witnessed something awful

  • something awful happened to you

  • the awful thing didn’t happen, but it was a near miss, and you can’t get it out of your mind

  • you are struggling to sleep, eat, go to work, stay in emotional control, concentrate or just plain live your life

  • OR….was did you live a sort of normal childhood, on the surface, but it scared you.

…If any of the above applies to you, you may be experiencing a stress response.

Whatever it is that has happened, I will help you get on track. Each person is individual in what they need, but I have lots of tools to help. Whether its using Accelerated Resolution Therapy to help your brain clear the stress response, talk therapy, or helping you learn to calm your nervous system, symptoms of acute stress response and Trauma are treatable.

Anxiety

Stress and anxiety can be debilitating in our lives. In the early stages, we might not recognize the vibration in our bodies, difficulties concentrating or struggles in being able to just sit. We may not know why we have to be so busy all the time, or that our fears are driving our lives.

I help people figure out the root cause of their anxiety and along the way we will work to help build awareness in what your body is telling you about what’s happening in your life, how you can help yourself calm, and how you can challenge your fears to free yourself from whatever is holding you in fear based living.

Co-dependency and Toxic relationships

I work with survivors of toxic relationships heal themselves. By understanding why we struggle with boundaries and people pleasing, we can start to untangle how we got into relationships to begin with. Usually with its roots in childhood, our brains work to protect us with our stress response. However, when the stress response is being activated, we (unfortunately) learn how self sacrifice can meet someone else’s needs, and thus protects us. Self sacrifice can become a part of our barter system for attention, safety, security and love. I help people untangle this web and get to living for themselves.
