Therapist Overview
Life is often tough and can be very stressful and overwhelming. Challenges are often thrown our way and we struggle with finding ways to cope. Hi, my name is Dr. O, I am a U. S. Navy veteran, International Psychologist, Clinical Director of Out of the Box, CCC, mom, and wife, and I am here to help. I understand the difficulties of navigating the challenges of life while trying to hold it all together. I specialize in working with individuals, families, couples, adolescents, and children facing emotional, cognitive, and social challenges as a result of trauma. When most people think about trauma, they usually think about “complex trauma” (war, accident, death, assault, abuse). However, trauma is simply STRESS. We all experience stress! Trauma occurs when stress becomes so overwhelming it affects our daily living. This can be depicted as depression/sadness, anxiety, anger, fear, exhaustion, personality or mood disorders, eating disorders, relationship problems, & more! Many people do not realize that the root cause of their distress is due to trauma. Studies have shown over 70% of the US population have or will experience trauma in their lifetime! 70% PERCENT! Let me help. Let’s take this journey together to discover the underlined cause of your distress, & attack at the root! Contact me today for a consultation.
