I believe that human beings have an amazing ability to adapt to extremely difficult situations, but sometimes using old coping strategies can encourage toxic situations at home or at work. When the tendency to accommodate others and the desire for approval goes unchecked, we betray our authentic sense of self and undermine our success. This is particularly true with adults suffering from symptoms related to childhood trauma, addiction, and those who have had to "mask" due to neurodivergent experience. Using evidenced based treatment, I work with adults and couples to create their best lives. I work with adults and couples who are highly motivated to learn, grow, and heal. My clients include adults who want to break cycles of family trauma, those seeking to embrace a neurodivergent identity and use new tools to ensure success, adults in recovery, caregivers, wounded healers, and those with chronic illness adjusting to a new "normal." In these difficult times, many people who have been successful by working hard and adapting to new situations are experiencing burn out. When the old ways of pushing through no longer work, or the connection to purpose and meaning is lost, it is time to reevaluate, pivot, and start a path of healing. I have helped many people on this amazing journey.
