My Approach to Helping
The people I work with want to change the way they are feeling or relating to others. Whether acute trauma, relationship issues or emotional challenges, I work with clients to process physical and emotional symptoms that feel stuck. Building on your strengths, we will work together towards an outcome of added joy, aliveness and connection to self and others. My experience includes over 10 years working with youth, adults and families. My training to date has led me to NARM. Here is a bit about the model: https:www.thecandidly.com2019everything-you-should-know-about-narm-the-newest-form-of-trauma-therapy
I believe we all experience a certain number of challenges in life and some lead to undesired physical symptoms, feelings or behaviors. My specialty will allow you to build skills to regulate your body and emotions so you can live the life you want regardless of the past.
I am a father of two who understands the impact of everyday stress, especially in these times. I view the therapeutic relationship as an essential need and understand the importance of finding the right fit. I look forward to meeting you.

Some testimonials from clients:
"My therapy experience with Adam was the best I've ever had. He is a compassionate listener and learner who both empowers and challenges you at the same time. I will carry the tools and framework that we cultivated together for the rest of
my life." -Maya
