You long to find an off-ramp to a cycle you feel stuck in. You are looking for more ease, balance, and joy within yourself and with others. You want to see more choices, options, and possibilities ahead. Have you been to talk therapy before and found that how you see things may have changed, but how you feel hasn't completely shifted? Does it sometimes seem like a war within yourself, experiencing conflicting thoughts or feelings? Do the options for change or skills to process life's challenges seem elusive or unattainable? Are you afraid that if you open your emotional tap, you may never be able to turn it off?
Creatively, we will learn how trauma/conflict/overwhelm impacts the body and relationships and ways to release, restore, regulate, and reconnect. I am passionate about helping others identify what they value most, connect with their bodies, deepen relationships, and rediscover empowerment using narrative, somatic, and experiential techniques.
I have 10 years of experience in the personal growth realm (Excellence Seminars & The Haven) and completed a 13-month internship. The people I've worked with range from ages 19 to 86, from various cultural backgrounds & diverse lifestyles, and fellow counsellors. If I sound like a fit for you, I'd love to connect for a free 15-minute phone/video consult.
