I Help People Get Unstuck

I provide a safe, shame-free space for clients who have experienced relational / complex / developmental trauma, or somehow gotten stuck. A place where you can heal and create a life you love. Complex PTSD can be effectively healed and post-traumatic growth can occur.

I believe we all have the innate capacity and drive to heal whatever we’ve been through. And CPTSD can now be effectively resolved with the right kind of support. Relational trauma needs relational healing. I’ve been through CPTSD, so I understand and won’t pathologize you.

It would be my honor to help you let go of what you’ve been through, dissolve shame and discharge fear, get unstuck & free your inborn capacities for healthy growth.

Client Testimonials

“Jim has immense knowledge about everything related to trauma and related treatments. Extremely up-to-date and competent in analyzing which modalities will work with a client.

Very careful with his words and framing along with being very recovery-focused. Every session is packed with answers to questions asked and techniques/recommendations on how to tackle CPTSD responses.”

~ Ayr

“Working with Jim was one of the most transformative experiences of my life. Over the course of our sessions, my life took a complete 180.

Jim held space for me in a way that felt both safe and empowering. He helped me face deep fears that had been holding me back for far too long, and guided me—without pressure, but with clarity—toward the bold decisions I knew I had to make.

His coaching challenged me, but in the best possible way. I found the courage to take action where I had been stuck for months (maybe even years), and those actions have since brought me more alignment, peace, and purpose than I thought possible. Jim doesn’t just coach from the surface—he goes to the root, and that’s where real transformation begins.

If you’re ready to truly shift your mindset, step into your power, and make decisions that change your life for the better, I can’t recommend Jim enough. This isn’t just coaching—it’s a catalyst for your next evolution.”

~ Ruth (Betsy) Otero

“Jim’s knowledge and compassion helped me know I was with the right person because he understood my experiences and challenges.

When there were aspects beyond his personal experience, his curiosity and tenacity to figure it out with me were what kept me moving forward.

I felt like I had a partner working alongside me rather than being alone in a dynamic that felt bigger than me.

The work I was able to do with him ended up serving as a ramp, launching me in a new direction that has been incredible and life-changing!”

~ Amy

“I honestly feel so much better. The feeling of loneliness is changing as my posture and energy.

The idea that I exist with grace and have the green light to use my abilities for myself and others without the feeling of guilt is a new path for me.

… I believe the best part is that my life had been transforming like magic while the sessions were happening

… learning from a brave, generous, educated, funny, and patient human being who led me to … improving my life from the inside out and from the outside in.”

~ Yanet

I See You

Relational trauma survivors have often never been seen for who they actually are. In narcissistic and abusive relationships, you get told who you are, and it has nothing to do with the real you.

Let’s discover your Authentic Self. You are enough; you are what you ought to be.

I hear You

When’s the last time you were carefully listened to by somebody who actually gets it?

Telling your story and being heard, understood, and validated breaks the hold of grooming lies and brings freedom from toxic shame and fear.

I Care

I am a survivor of developmental and shock traumas. I understand at a fundamental level what you’re going through. It can be a nightmare.

I enjoy leading others into healing, peace, joy, and freedom.

You Matter

Relational trauma survivors are groomed to believe they don’t matter, don’t deserve much, can’t get much, and have nothing to offer. These ideas do not reflect reality.

I’m here to see you through your healing until you create the life you want and are free to offer the world the gifts only you have to give.

What is the Process?

Our collaborative and mutual intersubjective relationship is the field in which healing occurs. We start by clarifying your heart’s desire for yourself now, and I join you towards that end. We don’t focus on rehearsals of the past.

Then we get non-judgmentally curious about internal obstacles between you and your intention; old patterns that perpetuate suffering. We discover that these are learned, deeply rooted safety-driven adaptative survival strategies, created to deal with very real historical challenges. We respect them, work with them, and do not set you up to “effort” against yourself.

We increase agency and dissolve toxic shame with curiosity. With growing awareness on all levels of experience, you can organically orchestrate your internal experience harmoniously and relate to all aspects of yourself with compassion and acceptance.

With increasing internal security, you discharge built-up fear, complete built-up grief, and integrate anger into assertion. Shame-based identity distortions dissolve. You experience integration, self-regulation, and peace. Agency fuels empowerment—you exercise new freedoms and capacities without guilt or self-sabotage.

Connectedness, aliveness, and vitality become the new normal. Post-traumatic growth gives new meaning and purpose to life. In the end, the wound is where the light enters you.

I’ve experienced CPTSD myself, and have learned effective ways to experience real lasting healing. The NeuroAffective Relational Model is the only therapeutic model specifically designed to permanently heal complex & developmental trauma. It is extremely effective the effects last.

I have a gentle, non-pathologizing, and non-retraumatizing approach to supporting my clients’ innate drive towards healing and growth.

About Me

I am a survivor of developmental and shock traumas and have worked on recovery for 25 years.

In supporting survivors of relational trauma, I have seen that most of us are stuck in important ways. There is a good reason for this; relational trauma causes Complex PTSD. Unfortunately, the prison of fear and shame that is C-PTSD does not simply resolve with time. It requires some work and safe, competent relational support. It has been my experience that CPTSD can be healed and is well worth the effort.

Survivors deserve to transcend echoes of their past, enjoy their lives, and create the future their heart desires. I believe it is possible for you. I’d be honored to play a role in that.
