Do you feel emotionally numb? Or perhaps feel your emotions are too big? Do you wonder how to feel greater joy and let go of wounds that don't seem to resolve no matter what you try? I take a holistic approach to treating mental health that incorporates the body, mind, and spirit using a somatic lens. Somatic therapy is a body-centric approach to therapy that guides you to notice sensations in your body as a way of exploring emotions and beliefs. I teach people how to connect to their internalized emotions through mindfulness , visualizations, and breath work, using bodily sensation as a way to transform deeply held wounds.

I would love the opportunity to show you how strength based holistic counseling, neurofeedback, somatic therapy and EMDR, can help remove barriers to healing and move towards Inner Peace. The power of healing lies from within.

Deciding to go to therapy can be intimidating, but is a courageous decision to make. Whether this is your first time coming to treatment or a repeat, I want to congratulate you for having the self awareness and strength to create a positive change for your future!
