I have over 10 years experience in the field of trauma with emphasis on sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, interpersonal/relational conflict and life transitions. I received my BA and MA from Naropa University in Boulder, CO which has a philosophy rooted in the belief that all individuals have the tools within themselves to heal from even the most difficult of experiences. My therapeutic foundation is rooted in this same philosophy. My ideal client is anyone eager to reclaim who they truly are with curiosity, compassion and raw vulnerability. By discovering this inner truth, they are set free.
My client-centered approach is committed to helping individuals grow and heal from various emotional and behavioral challenges by implementing body-mind re-integration, mindfulness based skills, as well as cognitive behavioral therapy; targeting self-destructive thought patterns and behaviors preventing growth and emotional health.
Being trained in mindfulness based skills, as well as keen intuition, I have the unique ability to uncover the "hidden" truths underneath clients presenting problems, shedding light on the real issues causing them suffering. Once unveiled, healing occurs. Leroy, the supportive sidekick, recently passed away this Summer, but his impact is everlasting.
