If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) who is a high-achiever, I can help you reduce anxiety and create healthy relationships. Empathy pulls HSPs to rescue lost kittens and fight for the underdog. Unfortunately, your kindness is often taken advantage of, and sometimes abused. Intense emotions coupled with sensitivity to the environment make relaxation challenging. Together, we will navigate through relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, PTSD, and grief with a compassionate approach. You'll learn practical tools to reduce emotional distress, all while cultivating a strong sense of Self. All sessions are held on Zoom.
Mind-body-spirit healing produces superior results. I'm certified in Brainspotting and use IFS, EFT Couple Therapy & Gottman Couple Therapy. As a Christian, I respect all spiritual paths. I'll empower you to be true to your Authentic Self, even when others judge you. If you want profound transformation more quickly, join us for in-person intensive retreats.
It takes courage to ask for help. Finding just the right therapist will make your life so rewarding. To discover if we are good fit: Read my 2 websites. Read or listen to my bestselling book on Amazon: "The Gifted Highly Sensitive Introvert." It's a memoir with teaching stories.

I use experiential body-based therapies because they generate faster results than cognitive therapy alone. Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems, and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy are rooted in attachment theory. To accelerate healing and growth, you need to heal emotional wounds stored on the unconscious level. I am dedicated to helping you experience major shifts.
