Welcome!
Hi everyone! I feel like it would be beneficial to start out saying, I don’t know what I’m doing when it comes to writing a blog. I’m just going for it and I’ll learn along the way. So, anyway, my name is Adam and I’m a therapist with Life Recovery Consulting and supervised by Robert Cox. I wasn’t always a therapist. I actually started as an Electrical Engineer. Somewhere along the way I realized that the engineering world and making products just wasn’t all that satisfying to me and I ... Continue Reading

Death, divorce and other forms of disconnection begin affecting us way before we actually experience them and preparing for that event can help us cross the bridge more easily. It will not save us from the pain, but it will insure we meet the loss with eyes wide open and learn what it has to offer. This ... Continue Reading

How trauma can change our ability to regulate emotion and connect with others and what we can do about that. Connection seems to be key, but how do we learn to connect when connection feels unsafe? We begin this series with the discussion of how the nervous system is shaped by trauma and how that affects our ability to connect.
