Welcome to Resilient Faith Counseling
Background
I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with a background in therapy and teaching in especially relating to trauma and resilience. My education includes training in traditional psychotherapy as well as newer body-oriented approaches to trauma resolution and resilience. My approach is drawn from each of these areas and tailored to the needs of the person, couple, or family. I have a heart for seeing people heal, grow, and flourish. I also have extensive experience in working with trauma survivors of every kind, first responders, and fellow veterans.
What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing™ or SE® is a powerful tool for working with trauma, stress, and anxiety in the nervous system developed by Dr. Peter Levine. It works from the “bottom up” in treating trauma by bringing stability, responsiveness, regulation, and resilience into the Autonomic Nervous System. Many of my clients, both religious and not, come specifically for SE®.
You can expect somatic work to be gentle and non-cathartic, to work with the here-and-now, and to be dynamic, involving not just attending to what your body is doing in the moment but moving around as well, standing, walking etc.
