“Trauma” happens when a situation or an event overwhelms a person’s ability to cope, when the mind, the body, or the spirit shuts down or goes offline in order to get through the moment. Amazingly, while we may not have clear and whole memories of the event, the mind, the body, and the spirit have a memory of their own. Because of this, we can develop ways of seeing, relating, and experiencing the world that make life difficult. These difficulties can range from anxiety and depression to flashbacks or dissociation. They can make it harder to trust people, God or oneself. And it can leave you feeling lost or without purpose in life.
BUT you can write a new story. Trauma does not need to define your life, future or family. You can have peace, hope, faith and joy. Your marriage can be freed up from challenges of the past. I commend and admire you already for considering therapy and a step toward healing.
As a trauma therapist, I help kids, teens, adults and marriages heal from pains and difficulties associated with trauma and begin a new chapter. In therapy, my approach is gentle and engaged. I move at your pace to process the past, navigate the present and explore possibilities for the future. I consider it an honor to support you on your journey.
