Introduction

I help people turn trauma into purpose through teaching them to be present. By combining physical and mental health counseling with philosophy. I help overwhelmed trauma-survivors create purpose from their traumatic experiences. How do I do this? By helping them do a deep dive into what they want out of their lives. Assisting them in acquiring a better understanding of how their trauma continues to impact their lives. And helping them discover ways their trauma can contribute to their lives and others. Once they’ve found their motivation and direction, their journey of self-care begins. Starting with taking care of any anxiety and/or depression they’ve had due to carrying this weight around. Their greater sense of self-awareness and consistent self-care routine helps them accomplish goals that align with the purpose(s) they’ve identified and will help them with their long-term goals of health and wellness. My focus continues to be on fostering holistic wellness and emotional resilience, leveraging my skills in psychology and psychotherapy. With a proven track record in guiding individuals through their mental health journeys, the emphasis of my work lies in empowering clients with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder. The competencies developed through my tenure as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and as an independent consultant underscore my commitment to innovative mental health practices. At the heart of my approach is the transformative power of helping clients convert their challenges into stepping stones for personal growth and resilience.
