My name is Jewels and my specialty is working with individuals who grew up within family conflict, a difficult relationship with a parent, or a childhood that did not feel safe. I have trained in attachment trauma (when we don't grow up with consistent, nurturing caregivers) and the impact it has on our brain, body, behavior, and relationships. Growing up this way can feel like climbing a mountain without a map. We become skilled at navigating rocky terrain, reading the weather, bracing for storms, learning the safest path to take, and how to survive on our own. Our nervous system can feel these effects long after childhood is over. I offer education on the impact of trauma, mindfulness, tools for anxiety, productive communication techniques, ways to set healthy boundaries, and much more. For deeper work, I offer Internal Family Systems (exploring and getting to know different inner parts of yourself), and inner child work. We move at your own pace, focusing on what feels right for you. I am a nurturing therapist and offer a safe space where your inner child can begin to heal. You deserve to have a voice and your voice is important. Your feelings matter and you are not alone. “Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right” -Robert Hunter

As a mental health professional in the age of the new millenium, I would describe my approach to helping people as integrative and holistic. As a therapist, I think it is crucial to create a loving, safe environment for each individual. Then specific to each individual, I create a plan integrating cognitive behavioral techniques, psychotherapy, visualization, relaxation, EMDR, hypnosis and reiki. Together with the client, we create a new positive self-image that can completely transform an individual's life. As Nelson Mandela said," Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure".

Born in some respects from my wartime Military experiences, as well as from an amazingly dedicated and compassionate mother who has dedicated her life to others, my early influences have created a passion in me to help others. When they share their experiences in treatment, I feel humbled and invigorated and truly where I am supposed to be. My years of experience directing the largest State operated children's psychiatric outpatient program and supervising 70 professional staff have afforded me invaluable perspective as well. This exposure has also affords me extensive knowledge of community support systems, both Inpatient and Community based.
