I have spent my entire adult life in the quest to understand human suffering and personal transformation. Professionally, I have been a trauma therapist for 25 years and during that time I have received training in many well-known and respected trauma approaches, such as EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Logosynthesis. In addition, I am currently working on a Mind-Body coaching certification.

 

I published a book in 2022 called Cycle Breaker: A Guide to Transcending Childhood Trauma. This book tells my story of healing from the extreme abuse I experienced in my family. I share the approach I used to heal myself to support others who also desire the transcendence of pain from trauma. 

 

My second book, Body Solidarity (not yet published) is based on what I have learned as someone who has spent over 30 years addressing a variety of complicated physical challenges related to pain and illness, stemming from childhood trauma. 

 

In my coaching, I help people address the problems they have in their adult life because of their unhealed childhood wounds. I look at symptoms, such as the need to control, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, problems in relationships, and health problems as indicators of unhealed pain. My goal in coaching is to guide people on their journey of resolving past traumas so they can create a life they love.
