I work with couples, adults, teens, college students and kids. I understand how trauma can stop our daily lives, and force us to time travel to the past to relive our suffering. Trauma can cause blocks in our ability to think, feel, understand ourselves and the world around us. It can trap us in a flashback or nightmare, and make that our tangible reality we cannot escape. How do we move forward when trauma causes us to feel stuck?
In our sessions, you can just be you, and let your defenses melt. I value what you bring to the session, and listen with non-judgment. I believe that there is no right way to live, and do not impose my own values. I help support you to find your own power to grow and change.
I provide a safe space for those of marginalized identities to feel valued and honored. It takes courage to move forward in your path of healing. Let’s work together to find your inner wisdom, and strength. Send me an email or phone call to book a free consultation.
