Tuning into what is needed, we may work with Brainspotting to help shift trauma or anxiety, we may work with a dream they had to deepen our understanding of what they are working with, we may talk about childhood family dynamics and how clients want to be in relationships now.
I help sensitive and neurodivergent adults & teens navigate the grief that comes with loss or trauma and step more fully into wholeness and connection. Has a dear one died and you feel lost and empty with the tremendousness of your sorrow? Or perhaps the trauma or grief from decades ago has come to the surface and you're feeling overwhelmed, tearful, foggy, and it's impacting your work and relationships. The pain may be ready for the alchemy of grief, which transforms us, helps us befriend this territory, and deepens our hearts. We aren't meant to face these things alone. Facing them together helps us come back to life.

I offer adult individual, family, and couple's therapy (marriage and dating, engaged, friends, siblings, parent-child(ren).
Take a moment and think about your relationships. Are they thriving? Healthy? Is there meaningful connection? Am I in relationship with others and still feeling lonely or like an outsider? All of us were taught how to do relationship from those who surrounded us in childhood. Some of those lessons were healthy and others not so much. Instead, we were not taught how to effectively communicate, that emotions were “weak,” and our boundaries did not matter. And as a result, we’ve been exposed to manipulation, abuse and/or have taught ourselves to be so protective of ourselves that we don’t let others in and end up feeling lonely.
