When we go through hard things in life it can have all kinds of effects on the way we feel about ourselves, our relationships and our life. Seeking therapy with a provider you can feel safe with and open up to can be one of the most beneficial and healing things we can do for ourselves. If you are struggling with emotions, thoughts or beliefs that you know are holding you back from living with a sense of well-being, I would like to help. I provide a holistic, compassionate, affirming space for you to explore and process your struggles so you can feel more peace and connection in your life.
I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, incorporating mind and body in the healing process. I use a variety of trauma informed approaches to tailor treatment to the needs of each client. Most of all I respect that you are the expert on your own life. I believe my role is to guide and support you in your re-connection with your own inner wisdom.
Sometimes our past experiences of life can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. It can be difficult to see how to move forward in order to recover from what has happened. If you are struggling to find peace and joy in your life right now, I would be honored to help light your path to healing.
