Much of my practice is working with individuals who have survived childhood abuse and/or domestic violence. I have participated in training to become a Certified Family Trauma Practitioner and additionally have training in Internal Family Systems and Attachment Theory. I have a unique perspective that blends the spiritual and secular.
If we have suffered through childhood abuse, neglect or domestic violence, these experiences can shape the way we view others, the world and even God. For example, if we have a biological father that is cold and distant or punitive, we expect the same of God. I help my clients to build their security in God and accept themselves with the same Grace and Mercy that God does. I educate my clients about the way God designed their body and help them to come to the realization that they are not defective in design. God did not create us to live in toxic and threatening environments. Once we realize our limitations, we can accept our shortcomings and offer them up to God free of guilt and condemnation to receive the healing that we so desperately desire. Through increasing our security in God and learning to self reflect and navigate the emotions bottled up in the wounded parts of our flesh, we can shift the focus from our disappointment in ourselves and onto our relationship with God and our symptoms can diminish without effort.
