About Andi:
Betrayal trauma often brings uncertainty, pain, grief, fear, loss, anger, and confusion. Yet hope can remain: hope that the wound can slowly heal, hope that the two of you can face this tragedy together and build something stronger, hope that empathy can be established and stay, hope that you can grieve together and learn to trust again, and hope that intimacy can be built so the relationship can thrive. If you are exhausted from white-knuckling your way through betrayal trauma, I am here to guide you in your journey of post-traumatic growth together in a non-judgmental space offering warmth, wisdom, understanding, and a neurobiological approach to addiction and betrayal trauma.
