East Valley Trauma Counseling Mental health counseling for first responders I'M NOT THE TYPICAL "TALK THERAPIST." I make sure my clients always feel safe and in control of their process.

Many of my patients tell me how terrified they were before starting counseling; how many of them have held on to memories or feelings of shame and guilt for many years and were afraid to talk about it. Counseling is less about talking or telling others the details of your story, and more about healing the body, mind, and soul. This can often be done with few words, as trauma and anxiety work is largely about feeling safe in the body and calming the nervous system. In trauma work, the past is processed until it no longer feels present in the mind and body. Many of my patients have had great success in healing without ever having to describe or disclose the details of their trauma to me. We work at your pace. Trauma therapy should not look like walking into someone's office and having to talk about all the terrible things you've experienced. I start our work together with evidence-based neuropsychological exercises to begin the process of putting your nervous system back into balance, which reduces symptoms of anxiety and distress. I make sure you always know what we are doing and the science behind it. I offer online scheduling through a secure, HIPAA compliant patient portal, so you can find a time and day that works best for you without ever having to wait for a call back. You can use a secure chat via this portal to message me any time in between sessions for non-emergency issues if needed, and I always try to respond within the same day. When selecting a counselor, be sure to ask about ongoing education, training beyond simply "Level 1 and Level 2 EMDR," and years in practice. I have extensive training in trauma work, as well as other areas and modalities. Take the next step toward healing and call to schedule a free 15 minute consult.

The “cure” for addiction is not sobriety / abstinence. Its connection.

Researchers say that the reason you feel so overwhelmed and stressed all the time is because of what they call an "evolutionary mismatch." Essentially, our brains were designed for living in a small village and harvesting roots and berries, but instead they're being forced to read the thoughts of billions of people online and watch thousands of short-form videos each day.
