Trauma

Given my training as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and various trainings in polyvagal theory, psychomotor development, and interpersonal neurobiology, my trauma-informed treatment approach centers on supporting one's nervous system in returning to a state of balance to promote a sense of embodiment and empowerment.
