I explore with curiosity, depth an intent. We work to understand your parts, trauma, family story, patterns, protective strategies, coping skills, underlying attachment style and needs. We address sense of self by slowing a session down, with somatic and emotional connection. We make sense of your lifestyle and address desired change in alignment with your values. I work with clients in addressing trauma, co-dependency, grief, anxiety, addiction, stress, self confidence, and relationships. With relationships I aim to explore the attachment styles, family trees, and connection needs while moving toward one another with curiosity.
I work with couples and individuals. I naturally move to working from an Emotionally-focused framework (Sue Johnson), ACT, Parts, Hakomi-Somatic and HAES. I work with addressing loss of identity, trauma, addiction, co-dependency and self confidence, by getting curious about and expanding the authentic self, becoming more settled in your state.
I work well with couples looking to address their family histories, current negative cycles, missed connection needs and repairing their bond. I work well with individuals who feel a loss of self, call to discover, heal attachment wounds and understand their stories. If you do not have insurance coverage at this time and fees are a barrier, please reach out.

Therapy will be gentle, challenging and purposeful. We explore underlying needs, and traumas that may have led to protective patterns with a gentle but intentional conversation. We explore pivotal moments, attachment styles, and how these defined how you make sense of yourself in the world. I am currently studying more around Hakomi, somatic therapy and mindfulness-based approaches, learn with me!

I use emotionally focused, attachment theory, and somatic depth work with my clients. If I am in the position to offer you a sliding scale spot, I will. I offer my clients genuine and authentic compassion while we address traumas, interpersonal concerns, process deeply, and move toward a stronger sense of trust in yourself and your connections with others. We slow down to heal deeply.
