Many of my clients are successful professional women who appear to have it all together on the outside, but inside feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted. They are often used to being the strong one for everyone else, prioritizing work, family, and responsibilities while their own needs fall to the bottom of the list. Despite their accomplishments, they may struggle with self doubt, harsh inner criticism, or the feeling that they are somehow not enough. Deep down, they want to feel more connected to themselves, trust their worth, and experience greater peace in their lives.
In therapy, I help clients move beyond simply talking about problems. Using a blend of EMDR and somatic therapy, we work with both the mind and body to process difficult experiences, shift limiting beliefs, and release stored stress and emotional pain. Clients learn practical tools to regulate emotions, quiet negative self talk, and build a stronger sense of
My goal is to create a supportive space where clients can reconnect with their inner strength and move toward a life that feels more balanced, peaceful, and fulfilling.

Lawanda is a colleague I absolutely trust will hold people gently with non-judgement and compassion. Her presence is calming, yet infused with aliveness. She can find you if you get lost inside and support bringing you into your body and what is most true.
