Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Healing Hearts: Memories are like data-bases; you can store them elsewhere.Get a journal;Document your memories in the journal, daily; and create space in your soul.After each entry, close the journal; back-fill the space by doing something pleasant; get an ice cream cone; watch a comedy; etc. Change your emotional mood. The memories are in the journal; you are free to heal.
