The journey inside the self can be profound self discovery and change. It can help to heal psychological turmoil and emotional pain by putting the past into perspective and walking forward into a different future. It is not easy. Sometimes you are faced with something in your life or within your family that changes everything. "This is not what I had planned". Finding your balance can be difficult.The very thought of beginning such a pilgrimage may cause anxiety and uncertainty. You know you need to get past it and yet it's not that simple and you feel unequipped.

My passion is helping people who have experienced emotional and physical trauma, neurocognitive deficits or medical injury/issues. I create a safe but challenging environment for people. Based upon IFS, I believe we all have multiple parts of ourselves and a core self within each of us that can help guide, and eventually heal our burdened parts. I believe in the incredible power of the mind and the magnificence of the human spirit. I use cognitive retraining, hypnotherapy, EMDR, IFS, HRV, and Neurofeedback (NFB) to help achieve self regulation, an internal cohesive connection and an improved quality of life.
