My Approach to Helping

I think people deserve treatment that works and relieves suffering. I believe in results therefore, I use researched based treatment to help women (age 15+) with histories of trauma and/or abuse. In most cases I use Prolonged Exposure Therapy a research based treatment that has shown 70% or more improvement in symptoms for more than 85% of the people that participate in the treatment. It is the only treatment to date (2/09) that has consistently shown significant results in reducing or eliminating Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms.

More Info About My Practice

Do you feel crazy at times? Have you ever thought that you are losing your mind? Have you been in therapy but nothing seems to help the overwhelming feelings from eventually coming back? Have you been hospitalized? Do you use self-harming behaviors to keep from losing yourself? Do you have a history of abuse, assault or trauma as an adult or a child? Would you like to have a life worth living? Then you have come to the right place. I specialize in successfully treating women with a multitude of problems. Many of the women that see me have a history of abuse or trauma. Often they experienced sexual, emotional or physical abuse as a child or young adult. Some have been in abusive relationships. Almost all are struggling to manage getting through each day without falling apart. These women typically have families, spouses or partners. Most are working, many in the health professions trying to help others while being unable to help themselves. They are tired of continuing to survive without being able to really live their lives. If you are one of these women please contact me at The Abuse and Trauma Treatment Center for Women.
