Abuse

I specialize in providing support and guidance for individuals affected by domestic abuse, offering a safe and compassionate space for healing and empowerment. My approach involves helping survivors understand the dynamics of abuse, build safety plans, and navigate the emotional, psychological, and physical challenges they face. I use trauma-informed, evidence-based strategies to address issues.

I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and have worked with trauma for many years. Abuse and trauma can have a huge impact on how you live your life and the safety lens with which you view the world. I work with patients to find a way to not let your trauma overtake you, so you are able to live in the world and interact in your relationships without the weight of your trauma holding you back. You are so much more than your trauma.

I specialize in those who have experienced religious and or spiritual abuse or have left a high control group or cult.

Childhood wounds have a way of lingering with us in the present, and intersecting with the stories of those about us. I invite you to step into the earth in the presence of a kind and compassionate witness to find the understanding and healing your heart desires.

I am passionate about supporting those with trauma histories to re-discover their innate resilience. I have experience working with those who have experienced abuse, neglect, violence, and other traumatic events, often intertwined with contextual and societal factors such as racism and poverty. I integrate traditional talk therapy with body-based modalities and education to empower my clients.

I have training and experience in treating various forms of abuse, including physical, sexual, spiritual, and emotional.

I have worked extensively with child & adult survivors of emotional/physical/sexual abuse & violence. I am well versed in acute and post traumatic stress disorder and have developed and facilitated group curricula that focus on reducing isolation, guilt/shame and self-blame; building self-esteem, positive support systems and coping skills; and increasing a sense of mastery & personal empowerment. I am sensitive to guiding the process at a pace that feels most comfortable and safe to each person.

I work with individuals wanting to recover from Narcissistic abuse. This might stem from families with narcissism, spouse/partner, sibling, work environment or friendships. It creates patterns and beliefs about ourselves that impacts how we've moved through life. We address how we might have self abandoned to protect ourselves. What once worked, no longer serves us. "I can't take this anymore and I'm scared of change." I can help you.

PTSD can be caused by one or more traumatic events—either experienced personally or vicariously. The trauma then affects your day-to-day life after that. C-PTSD is another form of trauma, but it occurs over an extended period rather than from a singular event. I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy with clients who struggle with PTSD and C-PTSD because I have seen the changes personally.

In therapy, we create a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, validated, and empowered. Our work focuses on addressing the emotional, physical, and psychological impacts of abuse while helping you regain a sense of control and wholeness in your life. Confronting abuse is hard, but living the life you deserve is absolutely worth it.

I have extensive knowledge and professional experience working with victims and perpetrators of abuse, neglect, and domestic violence. I particularly specialize in working with victims of childhood abuse and neglect.

I worked at a non-profit for domestic and sexual violence survivors for the first several years of my career, wat which time I was trained in crisis counseling and safety planning. I now utilize these skills along with EMDR and other approaches to process various types of abuse.

I have extensive knowledge and professional experience working with victims of abuse, neglect, and domestic violence and perpetrators of abuse, neglect, and domestic violence. I particularly specialize in working with victims of childhood abuse and neglect.

Most of my training is with trauma and various forms of abuse (emotion, physical, systemic and more). I take a holistic and liberatory lense to help my clients experience sustainable healing.

Are you in a relationship with someone where when it's good it's great but when it's bad it's painful? Has the person you love been conflictual, rigid, antagonistic, volatile, and entitled at times? Emotional abuse is real!! There is hope!
