About
Have you been noticing the feeling that your current level of professional help just isn't getting the job done? Are you considering whether it's time to break from an ineffective treatment routine and make a leap to something different...something more? Or maybe you have finally worked up the courage to seriously enter therapy for the very first time. Whether you're new to behavioral health recovery or an experienced survivor looking to reach the next level, Swagger Therapy may be the last course of therapy you will ever need. For over three decades, I have been building a kind of treatment to help human beings rise above the traditional types of therapy that just don't work. This brand of healing is constructed on a solid foundation of trauma theory and held together by science. Thirty years of experience...cutting edge methods and techniques. If you have already tried therapy, or you're in therapy now...and you wonder why you still can't calm your emotions quickly, why you still don't want to be alone with your thoughts, or why you still struggle to resolve the tough things with your partner, contact me. I will help you find relief worth working for. You deserve to be free from your suffering. Specialties: You will measurably improve your life in three phases. The first task is to be able to bring yourself into a calm balance within moments of finding yourself symptomatic and upset. Along with that you'll flex the inner "muscle" that returns you to self-acceptance. Second, you will neurologically release the burdens of past trauma. Finally, you will practice living in the world as a true survivor. Credentials & Experience: With over thirty years of experience learning what works from the most motivated survivors from all walks of life, I'll be beside you as you overcome the emotional pain and shame that once controlled you. We're all just trying to resurface from the last deep dive, finally free from our suffering.
"Over three decades, I have developed a carefully integrated model of trauma-based recovery therapy for individuals and couples. My Integrated Trauma and Systemic Therapies infuse your course of treatment with as many as twelve field-accepted therapeutic paradigms. With such powerful, research-based guidance, it is entirely up to you to decide how far you want to take your recovery."
