Many people reach a point in life where outer success no longer matches their inner experience. You may feel the weight of past trauma, find yourself repeating painful past, or face a spiritual crisis that unsettles your sense of meaning. These struggles are not just “in the mind” – they are carried in the body and nervous system, shaping how you feel, react and connect. I provide a space where you can explore these challenges with compassion, clarity and support.
My work is both spiritual and practical. I draw from: - Mindfulness/somatic-based practices—to cultivate presence and awareness. - DBT (Dialectic Behavior Therapy)—for concrete skills in emotional regulation and relationships - Guided visualization—to explore new perspectives and access inner resources. - EMDR – to resolve underlying negative experiences
So. You've made it this far. Hopefully you're curious, I'm a fan of curious. I like exploring, and to an extent, therapy, counseling, whatever you want to call it, is an exploration. That doesn't mean it has to be a bewildering one, or a scary one. And, like some of the best explorations, there are surprises, laughter, and awe. I hope to be your guide.

Relationships make the backbone of our human experience. Relationships to self, other, and the world/universe. A typical treatment plan with these elements will involve education (why we are believe what we believe) and investigation (how did I specifically come to believe what I do) and then shifting our thoughts and behaviors to match our intentions.
