I'm a Phoenix based therapist who focuses on helping others safely navigate distressing emotions, relationship issues, low self esteem and the effects of trauma. Many of the people I work with are stuck in patterns of people pleasing and self criticism as a means of survival. These patterns can lead to significant difficulty in managing anxiety, depression, setting boundaries and living a life of authenticity.
My work aims to empower others to work towards letting go of limiting core beliefs, cultivating secure attachment, and fostering greater present-moment awareness. I am also trained in EMDR therapy which incorporates bilateral movement to help reprocess traumatic memories so that they do not hold as much power in the present.
I believe therapy should be a warm and nonjudgemental safe space for you to be able to come as you are, breathe deeply, let go, and start fresh. I welcome you to reach out.
