It's time to feel grounded again - clear, connected, and empowered. Are you high functioning on the outside, but feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or disconnected from yourself on the inside? I specialize in helping anxious, high achieving Gen X's and Millennials reconnect with their authentic selves. We would be a good fit if you were a called a "perfect, easy kid" who performed to please others in order to stay safe and feel loved. Now you are tired of striving for perfection and you feel anxious, trapped, and far away from your true nature.
Areas of expertise include anxiety, trauma recovery, including spiritual trauma, perfectionism, relationship enhancement, people pleasing, and peace keeping. I utilize a trauma-sensitive framework and incorporate a combination of somatic tools, parts work, and narrative, solution-focused, cognitive strategies to dive deep and help create meaningful change.
Whether you're feeling stuck, burned out, or uncertain about next steps, we can find hope and move forward together! Gaining insight into unhelpful patterns is rewarding, and I believe in sharing lighthearted moments and laughter along the way. If you prefer nontraditional therapy, I offer a sliding scale for meetups in community, nature, or coffee shops.
