You feel stuck in life but you’re not completely sure why.

If so, I’m here to help.

Trauma Therapy

Any traumatic experience, including sexual and physical abuse, may impact your ability to live your best life – even if the trauma happened long ago. You may feel scared, numb, different or lost.

I will use different treatment modalities to help you process what happened in the past and gain a greater, more positive sense of self. You will increase your insight, but also receive coping strategies and calming techniques to use in the real world.

Treatment for Depression

Often those struggling with depression feel a sadness or numbness that makes it difficult to appreciate things that were once enjoyable. It can be hard to even get out of bed.

Therapy can help you identify the root cause of these feelings to help you increase your energy and be able to take pleasure in your life again.

Treatment for Anxiety and Panic

If you’re experiencing panic and anxiety you are probably spending a lot of energy worrying. You may also have some very intrusive physical symptoms such as muscle tension, jitters, sweats, or breathing difficulties. Maybe it has even gotten to the point that you’re worrying about how often you worry.

I can give you practical, hands-on tools to utilize to work through or even prevent these symptoms.
