My professional journey as a therapist has been informed by trauma and the cycles we find ourselves within generationally, within our lifetime, and how we see them live out in relationships. I focus on assisting with acknowledging what you have navigated on your journey thus far and how these events and experiences have shaped you into the current version of yourself. This process is client led to assist clients with a natural balance of processing that isn’t difficult or jolting to your nervous system. My goal is to let your body and mind help lead us on the healing journey that makes sense to you.
People I work well with are: Neurodiverse, LGBTQIA2+, bodies at every size, generational trauma, holistically minded, and social justice minded. My clinical practice is informed by psychotherapy, DBT, crisis intervention, Brainspotting, and mindfulness approaches. As a Reiki Master I am also familiar with holistic therapeutic practices.
If you are looking to tackle understanding yourself better, with whatever life is throwing at you currently, I look forward to setting up a 15 minute consultation to get to know you. I respond better to emails than phone calls, please email me at the link above. Check out, www.sec-llc.org to learn more about our practice and other professionals like me.
