Hello and thanks for your time, attention and ultimately your courage and commitment to healing. We all need a little help sometimes. For nearly 20 years, I've been a therapeutic guide for my clients - often facilitating profound change and forward movement resulting in healthier, happier lives for themselves and those around them. I am both a deep and heart-centered listener; and an active and involved therapist. You'll usually leave with some type of homework if you're open to that... even if it's just observing some aspect of your life more closely and reporting back on it.
Is it finally time to focus on you and your mental/emotional health and wellbeing? To heal those old wounds and free yourself up for a more vibrant and fulfilled life? If so, let's put the work in to do this. It's time to release patterns of anxiety, depression, negative self talk and fear.
My communication style is gentle and supportive; and also active and reflective. I endeavor to listen with my heart to deeply hear what is going on around and within you. Occasionally I may 'interrupt' you to pause, to not just pass by an important point or to encourage you to be with that emotion and let it have a voice or expression.

I am both a deep and heart-centered listener and an active and involved therapist. I am a "trauma-informed" therapist, and that means we do look at some original 'wounds' and apply healing to those to modify patterns that may not be serving you anymore. I utilize an array of interventions and modalities to do this, including Spiritual Psychology, EMDR, CBT, Parts Work, and Polyvagal methods.
