Don't let your childhood trauma hold you back any longer ...

Childhood trauma doesn’t just fade away — it unfolds over a life span.

Childhood trauma and suppressed negative emotions affect your brain development, your immune and hormonal system and even the way your DNA is expressed, for the rest of your life, unless you get help from an expert.

I specialize in freeing my clients from abuse and sabotage patterns from their past and I take my work very serious.

Why is it important that you receive help?

If you have been exposed to childhood trauma in high doses, you have triple the lifetime risk of heart disease, lung cancer, and auto immune diseases and you can expect a shortened lifespan by 20 years.

I am not talking about trauma like failing a test once or being sent to your bedroom without dinner.

By childhood adversity I mean threats to the nervous system that are so pervasive or insidious, they get under the skin and change your physiology.

Things like neglect, abandonment, sexual, physical, or mental abuse, growing up with parents or caregivers who had substance dependence or mental illness, separation, or domestic violence or even been left alone as a baby ‘to cry it out’.

The Adverse Childhood Experiences Study done by Dr Vince Felitti asked 17500 adults about their history as a child and sheds light on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE)The ACE Study reveals a powerful relation between our emotional experiences as children and our adult emotional and physical health, and major causes of mortality in the United States.

Moreover, the time factors in the study make it clear that time does not heal some of the adverse experiences so commonly found in the childhoods of middle-aged, middle-class Americans.

You don’t “just get over” things.

And on MRI scans, there are measurable differences in the amygdala, the brain’s fear response center.

So there are real neurologic reasons why people posed to high doses of adversity are more likely to develop heart disease or cancer.

The reason for this is to do body stress response system that governs our fight or flight response.
