Trauma Treatment
I have focused most of my continuing education since graduate school on how to effectively treat trauma. Most of us have experienced something, if not many things that fit into the category of a traumatic experience. Trauma can be simply defined as an upsetting event that is outside of our capacity to experience, process well, and file away as a normal memory. It can often affect us many years afterwards in dysfunction and symptoms like emotional sensitivities, triggers, flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance, self-medicating with substances, depression and more. I feel passionate about helping people reprocess trauma in a way that allows it to be stored differently in the brain and gives them freedom from dysfunctional symptoms. Healing is possible!
