Healing from Childhood Trauma
Jamie thought he knew what to expect when meeting Dr. LaDan Goble. After all, he had been in therapy for most of his life and had been hospitalized many times because of his mental health.
Growing up, Jamie experienced severe abuse and did not have a safe person in his life he could trust. This resulted in severe homelessness, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Working With a Psychiatrist for Therapy
In 7th grade, he started therapy for the first time and would continue for the next 35 years, resulting in at least 60 hospitalizations. Many doctors were not the right fit, “Thank goodness something in my life led me to Dr. Goble,” said Jamie.
Jamie started seeing Dr. Goble ten years ago after moving to Scottsdale. “I really needed someone who could see the hope in me and my life, someone who could see my many gifts and help me reach my full potential. I am grateful that I met Dr. Goble,” said Jamie. “She is the best psychiatrist I have worked with.”
Finding the Right Counselor
Jamie credits Dr. Goble for not giving up on him, even when he wanted to give up on himself. Each appointment was productive, Dr. Goble would give Jamie things to work on until their next appointment.
It is important to find a therapist who is easy to talk to. Jamie felt comfortable sharing his history, thoughts, and feelings with Dr. Goble but never felt judgment, only empathy. “Dr. Goble is very focused on patients getting better and not forever being in the system and staying sick.”
Now in his 50s, Jamie lives a happy life with his loving and supportive wife. He realizes how much he has learned about himself and what he has overcome. “My life is going so much better,” said Jamie.
