Are you feeling anxious, sad, or simply wanting to feel more at peace? Are you having a hard time feeling excited about your life or connected in your relationships? You may have experienced hardship in the past that makes you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or alone. Can you imagine relating to your emotions in a way where you experience a sense of trust within yourself? I provide a trauma-informed, somatically-focused, and playful approach that supports you in developing a deeper reverence for life.
I offer a nonjudgmental space where I integrate mindfulness, somatic experiencing, parts work, emdr, and attachment theory to support you with cultivating a compassionate relationship with yourself.
I believe we all have the capacity to be well and the ability to become our own best friend. Balancing all the things and maintaining a good attitude (for the most part) is hard, yet attainable. If you have no idea what you are doing and just know that you need change, reach out; I am happy to support you.
