Integrate
Human Development
As a professional counselor I approach my work
from a human development, life span perspective that
integrates understandings of the tasks and issues we
all face as we move through the life stages from birth
to death. I combine human development understandings
with a humanistic/transpersonal viewpoint, recognizing
the whole person and the importance of mind/body/spirit
integration in our life journey.
Trauma Specialist
As a trauma specialist, I am acutely aware of the impact
that exposure to traumatic events can have on the individual's
ability to successfully resolve the inherent issues
and conflicts and master the developmental skills of
the life stage in which the trauma occurs. In order
to successfully move into health, competence, and happiness
we must heal and resolve the physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual wounds that trauma inflicts.
Trauma, loss, chronic pain and illness, as well as
a host of other life challenges have a tendency to so
overwhelm us that we can become stuck in defining ourselves,
our relationships and our world negatively. As we do
this we can totally loose sight of our own potential
to heal, transform and transcend these negative experiences
and assumptions, and become our greatest Self. |

As your counselor, I become your partner
in the journey back through the negative experiences
that have helped your heart and mind to create limiting
and negative assumptions about who you are and what
you have the power to create, move through and do in
your life.
I am here to offer you a variety of techniques, understandings
and overall support in healing those experiences that
have weakened you and transform those experiences into
foundation stones for a new found strength and health
in your life’s journey. |
