About
I work with adults who's parents abused substances when they were growing up, and most of my clients still have a relationship with their parents. Whether your parent is now sober or still in active addiction, there is a complexity to the emotions this relationship(s) holds, the grief over what you wish you had with them, and the anger of the choice they have made (and often times continue to make). Due to this complexity of this grief, extra care and knowledge around attachment theory and trauma are required when working with clients that I provide. As a secondary speciality, I work with those living with chronic illness. View 3 Photos I can assist you in healing these attachment traumas and in healing a relationship with this parent if that is what you wish by creating a safe and warm environment for you and then act as a guide as we process past experiences using IFS and/or EMDR trauma therapies. The journey to being my best self started with a scary phone call asking for help, but it was best thing I've ever done. I'd encourage you to make the call. Therapy and moving towards healing is hard, and the status quo is always an option. However, on the other side of our trauma and pain, our truest self lives. Finding him or her is worthwhile.
