Therapy For People Impacted By Trauma
It’s time to find the help you need to heal
Does this sound like you?
- You can’t complete normal daily activities, like going to work
- You find it harder and harder to get out of bed in the morning
- You can’t focus or concentrate
- You’re exhausted all the time, and it never lets up
- Your patience is thin – everyone is annoying you so your relationships are suffering
- You can’t sleep anymore
- You feel keyed up or agitated most of the time – little noises or surprises can startle you
- You’ve lost hope and faith in the world and humanity
Due to Covid-19, all current therapy sessions are conducted by video or phone on my secure telehealth system. Telehealth also gives me capacity to work with people all over the state of Minnesota.
Compassion Fatigue Is Real.
Expert Treatment for Vicarious Trauma and Burnout
Are you:
- a clinician who treats soldiers suffering PTSD?
- A social worker helping children who have been affected by trauma
- A teacher feeling helpless with students who go home to difficult circumstances
You’ve heard it called Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS), Vicarious Trauma (VT) or Compassion Fatigue, but let’s call it what it is. After working with countless professionals, I have coined it “Provider Trauma.”
Burnout
When You Don’t Want to go to Work Anymore
What does burnout look like?
- Exhaustion
- Cynicism
- Decreased productivity
- Decreased pleasure in work
- Decreased motivation
- Loss of meaning in work
- Irritability
- Relationship stress
I can help you recognize and work through job burnout.
Clinical Supervision For New Social Workers
Unfortunately, many graduates are under-prepared to manage the impact of their work.
You need a support system to help you manage the effects of stress you may experience as you begin your work as a social worker. The supervisory relationship is critical to those new to trauma work.
I am accredited with the Minnesota Board of Social work to offer individual or group clinical supervision for Licensed Graduate Social Workers, with an emphasis on relational and trauma theory.
My professional experience includes work with survivors of domestic violence, adults with Serious and Persistent Mental Illness, in-home family therapy, blended families, couples therapy, co-parenting therapy, and children and families who have experienced trauma or attachment disruption.
Case Consultation For
Therapists And Social Workers
Sometimes a simple discussion with a peer that understands your work can unlock an idea you hadn’t thought of or reveal a solution that was there all along. That’s why I offer Case Consultation for fully licensed therapists and Independent Social Workers.
Schedule a Case Consultation Call with me and we will review those difficult cases.
