Your body needs more than words to regulate. This means that simply rationalizing won't help, but that you need to feel your way to healing. This means really getting to know you and what your nervous system is telling you, it's learning to communicate physical safety to your body. Through a collaborative therapeutic process, we work to build your capacity to find yourself empowered to face uncertainty and discomfort with learning to be intentional and not automatic. I prioritize authenticity/genuineness in therapy, because the real work happens when we get to be unashamed in showing up as ourselves
I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. These are Not what define you, there are healthy ways to adapt. In working together, we will discuss what brings you to seek counseling and navigate goals to gain regulating skills. In our sessions, I'll use Polyvagal Theory, Dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, and I'll meet you where you are
Are there things that you absolutely dread, are there times you feel you are walking on eggshells, do you feel you are just surviving life? Do you lie awake at night replaying every awkward thing you said? Sound familiar? Now's time to become curious, and build a connection back home to you.
