Waken Your Spirit - Trauma and Spirit Recovery Counseling

As a survivor of childhood abuse and trauma, I overcame profound isolation through spiritual connection, ultimately finding my life’s purpose and inner strength. Now, I help others understand and heal from their own experiences of trauma, dying, death, loss and grief, guiding them to connect with their higher selves (their identity) and reclaim their lives.

Understanding Trauma and Grief 


Trauma is the subjective (your) response to an unwanted, unexpected, psychically painful experience. Many different events, which stimulate fear, (the fight, flight or freeze function in the brain), can cause trauma to occur. Loss of a loved one through death, war combat, child abuse, losing a job, losing a dream. seeing a homicide/suicide, oppression by a government, divorce from a loved one, life threatening illness, surgery, rejection by a loved one, incarceration, homelessness. In other words, something which is perceived as being a potential threat to your survival or ability to procreate. In response to the traumatic event(s), the human psyche, body, and soul cope with the loss through the natural process of grief: the process of accepting the loss, bringing it into your reality, and then allowing it to become an integral part of your life experience so you can continue to grow and love.

We are naturally equipped for dealing with loss by experiencing a spectrum of emotions, often painful and confusing, that will eventually lead us to balance, homeostasis, and healing. The healing process varies from person to person. The journey is not easy and is often painful.

The human spirit is wounded when trauma and loss occur: your sense of unique identity is compromised or diminished. When these events occur we want to heal holistically: mind, body and spirit so that in time we will be fully renewed, refreshed, and our soul will have deepened through the process. We will be better people for our experience and be able to better love. This work is best done through the support of a trusted person(s).

We are social beings. The brain is a social organ. We need one another. We help each other heal. We are each on our own spiritual path, yet all our paths are connected energetically.

“I understand this and I can support you while you grieve. Grief is a normal and necessary period of acceptance and healing.” Contact me.

“Grief is a system of feelings, thoughts, and behaviors that are triggered when a person is faced with loss…Mourning is the behaviors that are part of the human grief response (external expressions of grief)…Bereavement is a cultural or social role for a person who has experienced a death.”
