Welcome to Transformations Counseling
Your spirit is bigger than what happened to you. No matter your struggle, you are more resilient than you know and possess endless capacity for healing. Symptoms such as anxiety, depression, anger, PTSD, emotional overwhelm, unresolved grief, relationship issues, codependency, addiction, insomnia, somatic symptoms, and chronic pain all have a story to tell. These symptoms are guideposts that can point us towards root causes and allow us to uncover the core issues at the heart of our struggles. The good news is we are all hard-wired for healing. Each person possesses incredible capacity to transcend their history and change in positive ways.
Using both time-honored practices and cutting-edge modalities, I work with clients individually to help them understand and address the issues that are holding them back so they can recover and thrive. I specialize in trauma resolution and have an abiding passion for helping people find lasting emotional health and wellness. My work is to provide individuals with the skills and tools needed to facilitate healing from past wounds while creating a more fulfilling, authentic life. With years of experience and robust training, I create a safe space for people to explore and ultimately, move forward. Your story is the key to your healing. Let the next chapter be one of hope and healing.
I believe in the resilience of the human spirit and that we all possess the innate capacity to heal and transform our lives.
It takes great courage to make the choice to reach out for help, but it is the first step on an incredible journey!
I approach the therapeutic process through a holistic lens, mind, body and soul. When we experience an overwhelming or difficult life circumstance it can cause a wound in the mind-body and we can find ourselves stuck in unhealthy patterns of thought, emotion and behavior. Over time this wound can wreak havoc and cause many symptoms manifesting in the body such as anxiety, depression, inability to relax, insomnia, emotional overwhelm and digestive issues to name a few.
Getting to the root of the symptom is where the healing begins. There is hope. Because we are all hard wired for healing and fundamentally designed to heal regardless of our past change is possible. Each person is unique, and your story is the key that will unlock your strength, resilience and endless capacity for healing. This is where your new story begins!
