Do you suffer from depression, anxiety, trauma, loneliness, or relationship problems that make you feel stuck? Do you feel alone in your relationships and struggle with communication, emotional connection, trust, and lack of physical intimacy? Do you want to break negative patterns in your relationships? Are you looking to rediscover love or are experiencing difficulties adjusting to separation, divorce, chronic illness, or transitions in your life? In a safe place, with warmth, empathy, and openness, I can help you take control of your life to make meaningful changes. I will support you to feel empowered and whole again.
Even in harmonious separations, decoupling is never easy and can be emotionally challenging. I have extensive training to help both individuals or couples considering divorce or separation. I offer compassionate support during this difficult transition to help navigate this process with grace, respect, clarity, and understanding for all those involved.
My clients describe me as warm and authentic. My approach is based on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT); (CBT); EMDR; and Mindfulness techniques. I provide you a space to explore, heal, grow, and develop healthier ways of belonging and connecting. You can find more information on my website. I am looking forward to meeting you!
