Life is a journey with many different challenging seasons. You might be feeling stuck by current or past traumas, low self esteem, ongoing anxiety or depression, or unfulfilled relationships.

It is my privilege and passion to walk alongside of those who are healing from trauma, abuse, anxiety, and those grappling with spirituality and personal identity. I firmly believe that through respectful, culturally competent and trauma informed approaches, space can be held for you to feel empowered to not just survive, but thrive! In sessions, I often use Internal Family Systems Therapy, and Somatic Therapy to equip and encourage clients to live mindfully in the present while honoring and healing what happened in the past.

Much of people's suffering comes from feeling disconnected from others, unresolved past issues that affect their present lives, and feeling unsafe in their bodes. Trauma is often thought to be the result of war, or severe abuse, when really there is a whole range of experiences that can be traumatic. They can include growing up in an invalidating family environment, surgery and illness, the loss of a loved one, divorce or ongoing relationship issues. Because trauma affects the brain, body, and nervous system, integrative approaches have been most successful in helping people feel whole again and lead meaningful and satisfying lives.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapeutic approaches and techniques, together we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
