Sometimes we find it hard to understand what is going on inside our heart and head. Perhaps we have a vague idea but we can't find the words to adequately express what we are feeling. Therapy offers us the opportunity to put language to our experience and increase our self awareness. Personal and relational transformation depend on that self awareness. I strive to create a safe place for you to journey inward without judgment; so that you may feel respected, secure and understood. To be invited into the depths of another person's soul is always a privilege. It is an honor for me to take this journey with you.
I specialize in treating trauma; specifically trauma related to early childhood. Trauma is an injury and not an illness. I can help you to give voice to that pain in order to understand it and to create a true space for healing.
I am a relationally oriented therapist. I believe strongly that the relationship that is formed in therapy is the very relationship in which profound healing can happen. When a client enters my office we begin a process of defining and structuring our relationship. Through that process we create the framework for self discovery and healing.
