“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly—what is essential is invisible to the eye” (The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry). As a therapist, I work to see people with my heart and hold a hopeful space of unconditional compassion and empathy. As a trauma survivor with personal experiences in therapy, I’m aware of how vulnerable and uncertain starting with a new therapist can be. I honor the courage and openness it takes to begin any healing process. Creating safety in the therapeutic relationship is essential to me. I believe everyone has the capacity for healing already within them, and I work to be empowering.

I value flexibility and creativity in my therapeutic style, and I draw from and integrate diverse approaches to discover what resonates with each different person. I work to be culturally responsive and attuned, and my approach is continuously curious, affirming, and trauma-informed. I often work with intergenerational trauma and attachment wounds.

As a therapist and human being, I try to embody a tree. This means moving slow, breathing deep, and being grounded. I view therapy as a poetic process where someone gets to tell their story and shape its continuation to best honor their soul. We all need to be heard, seen, and believed in, and as a therapist, I work to cultivate this heartfelt connection.

I work with a lot of people who have trauma, grief, pain, relationship issues, family issues, anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, hopelessness, and other struggles. I'm also passionate about somatic / body-based approaches to healing. There's a line from a Rumi poem, "The wound is where the light enters you." We all have different wounds, and by seeing them, we allow ourselves to shine.

Groups

Inner Child Reparenting Group

Hosted by

Henry Bernard

Transform painful past experiences. Create new memories and possibilities! How we perceive our present lives depends on memory. Difficult childhood experiences often prevent us from fully realizing our happiness, connection, fulfillment, satisfaction, and meaning. In Psychomotor Therapy (aka psychodrama structures/somatic symbolic reparenting), we create a ritual space where people’s unmet needs are responded to with compassion and care by ideal parents. Trauma-informed, body-based, communal healing. Bessel van der Kolk (The Body Keeps the Score): “It’s the only thing that I feel really works.” Sliding scale available. Reach out if you're interested in joining us!
