Introduction

Understanding your past to create a positive present. I specialize in addressing childhood trauma and how it may impact adult relationships and attachment. I provide psycho-education about how to transform pain into strengths and move forward in having positive connection with others. I use narrative therapy which helps people rewrite their story and let go of old ones that do not define who you are. I completed a Fellowship in trauma and attachment which provided me with advanced understanding of how to heal childhood wounds by maximizing the strengths developed to cope with those challenges. I also am well versed in understanding how social issues affect development, identity and opportunity and believe quality therapy cannot be done without considering the context of a person's life. We are shaped by our life experiences and those need to be understood and discussed in order to heal the whole person.
