I work with people experiencing many challenges including: generalized anxiety, health/illness anxiety, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts, grief, disenfranchised grief, difficult childhoods, relational trauma, ADHD. I can help you understand and modify what symptoms you're experiencing. Also, I can help you better understand why you behave they way you do in relationships, and help you adjust your patterns (e.g. codependence/people pleasing, being distant or hyper-independent, or, being overly controlling) that aren't serving you anymore. I work best with people who are interested in deep self exploration.
Utilizing a variety of modalities including EMDR, I can help you identify and shift unhelpful beliefs about yourself (e.g. "I'm not good enough", "I'm shameful", "I can't trust myself", "I'm not safe and need to stay vigilant", etc.) that are connected to past experiences. In session, I'm present, attuned, and attentive to you and the details of your life.
Whether it's your first or fifth time looking for a therapist, I know it can feel uncomfortable reaching out. Maybe you've never asked for help in this way before. I get it. Whatever your circumstances are, I'd be happy to talk with you on the phone for a free consultation call.
