Are you feeling tired, or overwhelmed, or like nothing you do seems to work? You are not alone. The constant overstimulation of today's society is not how we are meant to be. Then some of us also have children, and that can cause chaos around and within us. So then, how do we take events that are outside us and turn them inward? That is the work that we will do together to help you find your own inner peace so that you can interact with loved ones and the world in a new way.
In our work together, I draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches. I use somatic practices to help you build a deeper connection between your body and mind, cognitive-behavioral tools to bring awareness to your thought patterns and their physical responses, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to support meaningful exploration of your internal world.
I believe that therapy should move at a pace that feels safe and right for you. You always have the right to say no, and you get to decide how deep you want to go and when. My role is not to push or prescribe, but to walk beside you—as a guide, a support, and someone who is genuinely invested in helping you become who you want to be.

I work with clients who are suffering from burnout. They have burnt out because their children are laud and constantly touching them and thus the caregiver is feeling overwhelmed and they erupt like a volcano and then the guilt and shame come in. I will explore with the client their body and help the caregiver regulate themselves and permit themselves to have that space.

I often use somatics in my practice because it is a great way to feel the emotions within the body. In the first session, I will talk about the tools that might be helpful. From there we can also use somatics to explore creative outlets that might work for clients to help them process their emotions so that they can move through them with control and choice.
