My Focus: Helping You Get “Unstuck”
Top Priority: Moving Through the Tough Stuff
Life loses its flow when we feel “stuck.” What keeps you from moving forward becomes the very thing we address first.
Where “Stuckness” Shows Up
• Addiction
• Trauma
• Troubled relationships
No matter how it manifests, being trapped in these cycles drains your energy, confidence, and hope.
Addiction & Trauma: A Connected Journey
The Trauma Connection
Often, behind addiction is unprocessed hurt—a trauma that makes it hard to truly connect with others. Those vulnerabilities get buried in coping strategies that may feel helpful in the short term but hinder long-term healing.
Addiction Comes in Many Forms
Whether it’s substances, behaviors, impulse-driven habits, or emotional dependencies, we treat all types of addiction with care, not judgment.
Life isn’t always easy. Whether you’re facing challenges in your relationships, dealing with addiction, recovering from trauma, or just feeling “stuck” and unsure why—you’re not alone. Reaching out for help is a powerful and courageous first step. I’m here to support you as you explore your next one.
Opening up to someone about your most personal experiences and emotions can feel overwhelming—even scary. But with the right therapist, it becomes a safe space to breathe, reflect, and begin to heal. My goal is to be that “someone” who helps you feel seen, heard, and understood without judgment.
What Does It Mean to Be “Stuck”?
We all experience moments—or seasons—where we feel paralyzed, lost, or disconnected from ourselves and others. You may feel:
-
Like you’re repeating the same patterns
-
Unable to move forward after a traumatic event
-
Disconnected from loved ones, or yourself
-
Controlled by addictions or compulsive habits
-
Emotionally exhausted without knowing why
Often, addiction is not the core issue, but rather a way to cope with pain, shame, or unprocessed trauma. Together, we’ll address not just the behavior, but what’s underneath it.
Understanding Addiction and Its Many Faces
Addiction can take many forms:
-
Alcohol, drugs, or prescription misuse
-
Gambling, gaming, or internet use
-
Codependent relationships
-
Workaholism, food, or sex addiction
Often, addiction is not the core issue, but rather a way to cope with pain, shame, or unprocessed trauma. Together, we’ll address not just the behavior, but what’s underneath it.
