An unresolved past can often sneak up into your day-to-day life. You may find yourself reacting in ways you don’t intend to in everyday situations, followed by guilt and frustration, and then in other scenarios, it’s as though you feel nothing at all. Sometimes you are too exhausted to connect with those closest to you or feel as though you are unsure of who you are outside of your relationships. You may find yourself frequently turning to a substance, food, social media, TV, or sleep in order to feel relaxed. I am able to help you explore these experiences and find relief.
There is a future where you can better understand yourself, control your worry, and live in the moment. A future where you can trust yourself to know when it is safe to open up. You can find relief in ways that don’t lead to feelings of guilt or shame. I would love to help you work towards this future.
I offer a relational style of therapy, meaning that I view our relationship as a healing modality on its own. I also utilize parts work as well as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support trauma recovery. It is important to me that you feel in control of your healing journey so connect with me whenever you are ready and let's begin.
