trauma resolution
My Philosophy
Every human longs to feel connected, in the healthiest way, to the self, to loved ones, and to community. My predominant focus in private practice is to support you in restoring connection in these relationships. I believe that each person knows what brings bliss to their soul, their true being. Perhaps trauma has occurred in your life, adding barriers to healthy and sustainable relationships. Often, we need to develop the skills necessary to begin the process of reconnecting. I view therapy as an opportunity to create and hold space for your personal and very individual solutions to emerge. Each one of us has an inherent ability to heal ourselves. When introduced to, and supported through the therapeutic process, we as human beings can discover that our soul has arrived in a good space. We can feel happy for no particular reason (!) and open to healthy relationship with ourselves, with loved ones, and with community.
