I work with women who struggle with blended high/low self esteem. To the outside world, we are successful and have our shit together. Except we are masters at hiding pain. Inside, we have a black hole filled with guilt, shame, and feeling unworthy. We feel stress managing family, life, career, relationships, and don't feel good enough. We carry trauma in our bodies and it shows up in our daily life. From a young age, we learned self betrayal was pivotal to be worthy of love and to feel good enough. We didn't have a voice. My focus is repairing the damage due to past experiences and discover how to feel at home in our own bodies.
With 17 years in the field, I'm specialized in improving self esteem, managing stress, feeling emotions, processing trauma; complex and PTSD with dissociative disorders. My approach is highly tailored to each client. Swearing is allowed! I utilize talk therapy, EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)- L3 trained, somatic work, and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
By the time we get to the point of realizing, "I can't live like this anymore," we are overwhelmed, depleted and still pushing forward. Add in desperately seeking a therapist, it's exhausting. The hidden pain you hold deserves a space to be heard. My goal is to help you learn to trust yourself and become the most authentic YOU in a self-designed life.

My sessions focus on a relational experience to explore early attachment wounds/injuries, recognize and experience a healthy relationship, and connect to the self energy that allows for healing. At our first session, we begin on regulating the nervous system. I teach you how to feel emotions and the sensations that connect with them. We go at your pace. We build mind/body/spirit connection.
