Have you gotten stuck or lost and realized you haven't worked through childhood trauma or loss? I can help. Sometimes our lives are shaped around early trauma or loss the way a tree will grow around a rock or a pole. Our beliefs about ourselves, our behaviors, our relationship patterns, our emotional habits- are all shaped around and layered of top of those early experiences.
So often the coping mechanisms we develop to survive as children don't serve us well as adults. I would love to help you identify those early experiences that might be keeping you stuck or defined in a way that is painful or unhelpful and help you work through them more fully.
Clients tell me they appreciate my combination of an authentic, warm, low-key style with my ability to think through issues creatively and incisively getting right to the heart of what is important. Trained in EMDR, IFS and other trauma and general modalities. Call or email for a free 15-minute consultation. I look forward to speaking with you.
