I help people uncover the underlying 'stories' and old belief systems that cause them to feel stuck and how they may be reenacting these stories in the present. I enjoy working with individuals who would like to build better systems of internal and external support. I view therapy as a partnership, and seek out clients who are willing to partner together and are interested in creating more fulfilling life experiences and relationships.
I provide guidance and support around processing traumatic memories and events by getting to the root of your symptoms and helping you inhabit and embody your full self. We will uncover negative thoughts and beliefs that keep you stuck. We will identify resources and supports that will help you to manage your distress and expand your capacity.
Our work together will include learning and honoring all of the ways you have survived while determining what survival strategies you may need to put down in order to experience a healthier sense of self. We will build on existing strengths and resources and create more adaptive belief systems that help you manage distress and feel more confident and secure.
