Whatever brings you to therapy -- be that a painful breakup, a recent loss of a parent, a birth of a baby, a decision to marry or leave a partner, a difficulty connecting with your teen, worry and anxiety about your health, or difficulty in your intimate relationship - I am here to help you make sense of it, deliberately, with much self-love and compassion.
Carl Jung said: “It is what you are that heals, not what you know”. The journey of self-discovery is exactly that – getting to know and deeply appreciating your true and authentic self, even when that essence may be covered by trauma, hardship and suffering. It is this uncovering that many who experience psychotherapy to be transformative and healing refer to as a “re-birth”, a coming home to and an unfolding of who you truly are. Engaging in the process of self-inquiry can be a rewarding and even a life-changing experience, especially in the presence of an empathic and compassionate other.

Specializing in trauma work, I use inner child therapy to help clients re- parent themselves.
Have you ever felt like you're constantly fighting an invisible battle with yourself—your body, your habits, or even the people closest to you? Do you find yourself wanting more from your relationships but feel stuck, frozen by fear or uncertainty? Maybe you’ve asked yourself, “Why can’t I just be better?” or “Why am I always feeling like this?” You might be carrying wounds from the past, perhaps from a time when you had to suppress your emotions just to feel safe or accepted. But now, those old coping mechanisms no longer work. Instead, they keep you distant from the connection and fulfillment you truly crave.

Do you feel stuck and tell yourself that you are not a "good enough" parent
I believe it is most important for a child to feel safe in session...also, my relationship with you and your child is most important. Curious, playful exploration of unhelpful thoughts and behaviors then can begin. Your child will learn coping tools to manage whatever presents a challenge-morning routines, social skills, academics, anxiety, bullying, etc...
