I typically work with adults who come into therapy feeling uncomfortable and unsure. Many of my clients experience anxiety, notice that they might feel things more intensely than others, and are feeling out of place in a few different parts of their lives. I notice that these feelings are often accompanied by a sense of disembodiment - an uncertainty about how one's body reflects how they feel or a detachment from one's body, which causes great distress. Often, traumatic experiences have impacted the mind, body, and inner experiences of my clients and support is needed to explore these areas and to begin the healing process.
I work from a compassion based and trauma informed perspective. This means that I will meet you where you are when we start treatment and I will work with you to gradually explore expanding your sense of comfort in life, self acceptance, and satisfaction. I provide expertise around body acceptance, managing anxiety, high sensitivity, and life transitions.
I understand that engaging in therapy is an incredibly vulnerable choice and I consider myself to be privileged to hear your story and earn your trust. My goal is to empower you to feel supported in making decisions that work for you and your life. You are the expert on your life and I am here to offer insights, compassion, and a new framework.
