I help people who are suffering, lost in emotional distress & pain. Clients work with me to heal from emotional, sexual, & physical trauma, as well as the impact of growing up in a dysfunctional family of origin. I guide & support clients on a journey of insight, as they face emotional pain that refuses to be ignored. I see clients come out the other side with greater self-worth, grounded by confidence & security in themselves, discovering new perspectives & paths, while creating a fulfilling life in which they can thrive. Good therapy starts with genuine compassion and acceptance. These are the core values of my practice & my life.
My role as your therapist will be to create and maintain a safe space to contain the deepest, most unbearable emotions you carry. Healing takes place as we begin to face our most painful, shameful, & devastating thoughts & feelings. When allowed to surface, they can be confronted with compassion, processed & released. Hidden here is our path forward.
I love being a therapist. Genuinely, I really really do love it. The work I do with clients is inspired by the deep work I've done myself, and this is an ongoing, lifelong journey in my own life. I show up to every session with an understanding of how it can feel to sit in my client's chair. I’m honored to be invited alongside every client’s journey.
