When you or your relationship are suffering, it can feel impossible to create lasting change. Layers of relationship hurt, losses and let downs from backfired attempts at reconnection settle into our mind-body. We need new healing encounters with ourselves and our people to feel open again. In your time with me, you’ll find the empathetic guidance needed to process unheard pain and sort out misdirected reactions. We can transform damaging patterns within yourself or relationship into connection and confidence. Let's start where you are, doubts and questions included and discover how your steps toward positive change will continue.
I see individuals and couples working through relationship distress, past/present loss or trauma, anxiety and depression. My style is relational and nonjudgemental, encouraging you to be truthful and face what you tend to avoid. My approach is integrative, so you can connect with empowering sources in your mind, body and soul, all in a way that fits you.
In addition to my special training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and somatic trauma treatment, your investment in therapy means you get me- My full presence, support and deep commitment to your wholeness. Every part of your experience is welcome, including race, faith, family, gender, sexual orientation. Please reach out for a consultation call to begin!
