It is a great honor to travel alongside a person embarking upon a path of discovery, whether wanting to understand issues regarding relationships, what drives reactions, achieving growth and healing, coping with grief & loss, religious or cultural trauma, or the aging process. I believe that we are all capable of transforming old beliefs, and of moving beyond the patterns we have developed as a response to our past experiences & surroundings. If we choose to work together, I am committed to working collaboratively with you to help you achieve your goals.
I use a holistic lens to explore the different areas of your life, and may weave various modalities to help us understand your current experience by identifying what you are bringing forward from your past. We may use elements of Mindfulness, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Parts work, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation so that we can get to know each other a bit and decide if we would like to work together. I look forward to hearing from you!
