Pain without meaning is chaos. Often, pain is a signal that something needs to be different, not that something is wrong with you. You may feel stuck in a painful past or feel held hostage by shame, anger, overwhelm, heartbreak, or grief. Some people even find themselves romanticizing nihilism. Sometimes, it’s simply about needing a place to start talking. We may not figure out every 'why'; the work is about not being alone with that pain and changing your relationship with it. My hope is you emerge empowered, connected, brave, clear about who you are and what you need. How can I help while we're on this weird, little wet rock?
I work from an attachment-focused, body-based, & existential lens to help you make sense of your pain, grieve what’s been lost, & build a different relationship with others & what you carry. One can say I specialize in "the dark night of the soul,” when old identities fall apart and something new is trying to emerge. My somatic work includes Brainspotting.
I aim to be a curious, warm and calm witness for you; even short-term work can sometimes be beneficial. If you're on the fence about therapy, fantastic. Ambivalence is a great thing. You get to decide what pace feels right. Ultimately, our relationship is key with humor and a few swear words to boot.
