If you are feeling lost, disconnected or overwhelmed by emotion, you will find a safe space to explore your challenges in life with a supportive, empathic listener. Modern living is inherently stressful, and many resort to using unhealthy coping strategies that can get you stuck; by getting curious about the stuck-ness together, we can work together to untangle the knots and shift back into your natural state of wholeness. I believe the whole essence of healing is about finding a way to turn towards yourself when you're hurting, instead of the natural tendency to avoid/distract/numb/repress, and I can help you make this pivot within
I specialize in Parts work, using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) framework to help people reconnect with themselves. Bringing in curiosity and compassion to the painful patterns that seem to repeat in life is a great first step in building a new relationship with yourself, where you become your own biggest ally. I also use EMDR for re-processing trauma.
I will aim to meet you wherever you find yourself in life, and co-create goals to get you moving towards a healthier way of relating to yourself. It is a curious paradox that when we accept ourselves as we are, we are then free to change. My goal is to offer you an accepting, empathic environment to explore your experience, and accept it at a deeper level.
