Trauma impacts us all. Some of us carry trauma from our childhood days, others serve our communities and country in vocations that inevitably hold high trauma impact, and yet others simply live day in and day out in todays culture of high expectations towards performance and low expectations on self. Any of these things can be traumatic enough. The good news is that there is a science behind trauma, and an even more specific science behind first responder/military trauma impact. All of the symptoms that often times show themselves from trauma are treatable. My approach to therapy encourages acceptance, flexibility, and self-awareness as ways to help promote natural resilience in the wake of trauma and facilitate growth through the inevitable symptoms that follow. I also enjoy working with clients who suffer from anxiety, depressed mood and seek anger management. Together with proven treatment modalities including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems Interventions (IFS), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) and EMDR treatment options we will find the right fit for you. Above all, I trust the therapeutic process and always look forward to connecting deeply with clients.
