Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, depressed or stuck, I recognize the impact it can have on your relationships, goals, self-esteem and how you feel in your mind and body. If you find yourself affected by difficult events, grief, and trauma from your past, I understand how it can interfere with daily life making it difficult to focus mentally, relax physically, and enjoy the things you once loved. You do not have to go through this alone. I am committed to providing compassionate support and guidance as we work together to find clarity, joy and reclaim ease in your mind, body and spirit. Change is possible. Healing is possible.
My specialty is working with those who are suffering emotionally & overwhelmed with their past and present. I work with individuals wanting to break out of co-dependency, self-sabotaging, and trauma which can show up as chronic emotional/physical pain and leave you feeling stuck and confused.You don't have to figure this out on your own.
Focus of our work will be to understand the cause of your suffering and how it is affecting your mind & body in the present. This allows us to create new ways of thinking and feeling which lead to less suffering. Trained in IFS (level 3), Somatic Experiencing and psychoanalytic psychotherapy to help support you in finding relief & creating the life you want.

Psychodynamic: We work on healing wounds from the past that keep showing up in how feel about ourselves and in our relationships in the present. Somatic Experiencing: We focus on healing the mind/body connection. Relational: We use our therapist/patient relationship to help make sense of causes of suffering in order to create change outside of therapy.
