Have irritability and resentment hijacked your joy? Despite all you’ve achieved, you still feel unseen and unappreciated. Staying busy with work and activities helps you avoid uncomfortable emotions. Yet the relationships that matter most are complicated, leaving you disappointed, empty and lonely. Fear of rejection and failure keep you doubting your worth. Rest and asking for what you need feels selfish. So you push everything down to prevent the floodgates from opening. I help people lean into their emotions and safely express their feelings so they can trust themselves to show up in their relationships with more confidence.
Busy professionals prefer an intensive format to Jumpstart their healing. I provide Attachment Focused EMDR sessions in 2 hour blocks as well as 3 day Intensives where we dive deep into the patterns of behavior that keep you stuck and unfulfilled in relationships. Clients can participate remotely, or join me retreat style in my beautiful Boise office.
I have an unshakable belief that you can heal and I want to help you fulfill your desire to live life differently. We will safely identify your attachment wounds that lead to unwanted behaviors while strengthening your self trust and confidence. Then we will release the burdens you've been carrying so you can live your life with more joy and purpose.
