Stuck? Can't unstick yourself? Sometimes we get in our own way without knowing how to get free. I have helped people thread their way through their self-made jungles for decades. Some form of unfinished business trips us up, maybe from trauma, daily stressors, family difficulties, self sabotage, or toxic relationships. I have trained hard to help people see the potholes in the roads, and the pathways up the mountains. There is a way to face obstacles that releases their hold.
Developing resilience, and strengthening one’s experience of true safety and support are critical in healing. I have 7 years of post-graduate Gestalt institute training,over 10,000 hrs of meditation training, and EMDR trained. Training allows me to help people go deeper than just talking about their issues so they can creatively find their paths to thrive.
No one can see their issues alone. We can't take out our own tonsils. We all struggle from time to time. I encourage you to let yourself get help so you can find a sense of safety and ease.

I help people process issues in a grounded and present-focused manner to help them break patterns that may hinder them. I am trained in Gestalt Therapy, mindfulness, and EMDR. As a therapist I will direct our sessions away from chatting about your week, and instead will assist you in seeing how current actions might be anchored in your past, so real change can happen.
