I believe that all humans are innately driven to seek balance and congruence, and that when this drive is disrupted, whether it be due to emotional difficulties, relational stressors, or other life changes, we begin to suffer. It is my privilege to accompany my clients in their process of establishing balance and integration, ultimately achieving a sense of wholeness and security. I recognize that sometimes talk therapy isn't enough so I use a variety of additional therapies, including EMDR, which facilitate change by reprocessing emotionally-charged memories or experiences that often show up as physical sensations in the body.
I believe once one feels genuinely and unconditionally accepted, the work of self-healing becomes a natural process. Once emotional safety is assured, one is able to tolerate the discomfort that often accompanies the change process. I utilize a compassion-focused approach to provide an emotionally safe space where one can feel fully witnessed and accepted.
