Finally, Heal FOR REAL

from Addiction and Trauma even if you've tried all the things

So that you can live the life you truly desire

And out of the loop

of re-experiencing and beating yourself up

Are you a person who…

  • Can teach a rehab group because you’ve been to treatment so many times but can’t seem to keep it together long term?

  • Understands your triggers, has the coping skills but they only work some of the time.

  • Feels stuck in the trauma loop of reliving or thinking about what happened to you over and over and nothing has worked.

  • Has  been sober for a while but you’re still kind of miserable.

  • Has thought about asking for help with your drinking or using but balk at the label “alcoholic” or “addict.”

  • Has a loved one that is struggling with substances and you don’t know how to help them.

  • Has done a lot of healing of their trauma or addiction and is looking for continued growth and support beyond just living?

  • Is looking for a more holistic approach to healing and therapy?

 Sound familiar?  

People I support — whether they’re here in Stuart or connecting virtually — often say things like this.

If this is you…

Let’s figure it out together 

It takes courage 

to ask for help and I'm so glad you're here

Research shows: that 1 in 4 families struggle with addiction and trauma, and at least 75% of all Doctor visits are stress-related.

In therapy, we will work together to find the missing link to helping you heal so that you can…

  • Stay sober long-term

  • Release the pain of your past

  • Live the life you’ve hoped for but did not believe you could have!

You will learn to calm your nervous system, process your story and integrate your experience so that you can finally release the hold your past has on you and feel the peace, joy and connection you’ve been searching for, hoping for but didn't believe you could have!

If you’re looking for more than the traditional head nod therapist that just listens, that's me! I will give you direct thoughts, suggestions and tools.  There are times when you need a listening ear, and there are times when you just need someone to tell you what they think.  I’m here for both. 

We will explore what has worked and what hasn't worked for you, build a plan that includes skills you can easily implement into your daily life to build the life you desire instead of just surviving or going through the motions.  Talking about it is great, and sharing your story can be a super important part of your healing process. And many times it's not enough.

This is where Holistic Therapy and Integrative Intensives come in.  When we address what's bothering you Mind AND Body, there's a healing down to the deep cellular level that's much more powerful.
