I believe you are the expert in your life. I believe the decision to seek therapy can be beautiful, and complicated because such is life. Healing isn’t linear and is a journey that can be filled with a variety of feelings and emotions–expansion, discomfort, learning, relearning, and unlearning. My goal is to co-create a space and container that will allow you to explore, discover, and tap into parts of yourself unknown to you. I am committed to using a healing-centered, trauma-informed lens and feel your journey of holistic transformation is unique and valuable.

At Sana, we understand what it's like to go through pain, trauma, or depression. Isolation, impulsivity, or hopelessness become the only friends you know. You might have feelings of emptiness or conflict that make little sense. Trauma has been the backdrop of your life for as long as you can remember, and you're tired. Your goal is to recover, to find contentment, or just move through the world with a bit more ease. You have personal dreams and desires and would love to one day reach them.

My approach to therapy begins with the understanding of each person's unique story. With understanding your goals, I will collaborate with you to create the life you want while providing support, insight, encouragment, and the tools you need to get started.

At some point, we all struggle to adjust to change and fail to respond to life’s challenges with our best effort. It’s normal to feel stuck. We at Remarkable Services (RS) believe people inherently have what it takes within themselves to adjust, change and heal.

RS is here to help!

Therapy with me will have you leaving my office with tangible ways, for you or you and your loved ones, to facilitate changes in what you want in your life from the very first session.

I make authentic contact with people help them cultivate a taste for their own Truths while making space to grieve the loss of old ways or relating to people and the world around them.

You are doing the best you can. If you could snap your fingers and stop the anxious thoughts and worries you would, right? I understand the fear of being trapped in your negative experiences and how helpless that can feel without loving support. The truth is life is as challenging as it is remarkable and respecting how trauma, stress, neglect, or illness are showing up in your body and experience is paramount to healing. Trauma can show up as patterns of protection that keep us stuck in feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, hopelessness, and fear. And keep us from enjoying secure and loving relationships with others.

At some point we all struggle to adjustment to life's changes; it's normal to feel stuck and I believe people have what it takes to adjust.

I also work with adults and Couples often come to me for help in distress and are confused about how or why their relationship has derailed. I am dedicated to helping people build stronger; more intimate relationships and I use several modalities when attempting to help couples in distress.

The ebbs and flows of life can be hard to navigate at times. There will be times we need a little extra support. Finding that support is the most important step. Are you emotionally overwhelmed, feeling stuck, or struggling in your relationships? Is anxiety preventing you from pursuing the things that matter? As your therapist, I will listen and hold the space where you can be your authentic self. Together we will untangle and demystify all the feelings, emotions, and trauma you are experiencing. We will identify your strengths, resilience, passion, and goals to make positive and healing change. We will figure it out together.

We all could use a bit of guidance, and at times, a push in the right direction.

I am here to assist you to unravel and break free from whatever is blocking your inner light from shining.
