Les problèmes d'estime de soi, les problèmes d'image corporelle, l'estime de soi proviennent tous de problèmes précoces qui n'ont jamais été abordés.

Welcome! My job is to use my knowledge and skills to enhance what's already working for you. Areas of focus: Work stress, worries, sleep issues, health challenges, grief and loss, parenting support, guilt and shame, career and life transitions. My work emphasizes mind/body awareness to create health and healing. I've worked with clients who are completely new to therapy and those who have tried working with different therapists. My intention is to help you heal and rediscover your voice.

Ideally, I'd treat clients with a trauma history. Someone with a mixture of short and long term trauma. My ideal client is eager to learn and wants to find a way to become their own safe space. Someone who wants to learn how to set and maintain healthy boundaries, find out their triggers, and treat themselves with patience.

By working through challenges, you can experience increased emotional resilience, improved self-regulation, and a greater sense of inner peace. Through therapy, I will help you develop and refine effective coping strategies to navigate life's stressors.

Although most people will experience anxiety, depression, trauma, self esteem and relationship issues at some point in their life, some issues affect women differently and thus they need a different approach. Women deal with many unique issues like carrying the emotional burden in relationships, having different standards of physical beauty, being discriminated against at work, struggling with fertility issues, and experiencing interesectional racism. Women are often told to "deal with it" or that they are being too emotional, but I am here to tell you that your feelings are completely valid!

Are you struggling to connect meaningfully with others or finding interpersonal relationships more challenging than rewarding? Do you often find yourself caught in cycles of conflict, misunderstanding, or emotional distance with those closest to you?

Loss of a loved one, loss due to an illness, loss of a job, or the end of a relationship? Maybe you are battling anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma.
