I work with individuals and couples who want to heal emotional wounds and pursue their mental health goals, but feel alone, anxious, ashamed, detached, depressed or stuck in repetitive cycles and negative emotions. I offer hope and fellowship as you seek change and healing, and my sincere regard for the emergence of your authentic self. I will listen so that you feel heard, seen, valued and understood. Then I will guide you to take insight into experience by processing stuck emotional pain and healing old emotional wounds through embodied experience in the session, so you can advance and deepen your relationships.
Our relationship is the new model for secure attachment and transformation. I use evidence based, experiential and relational models like AEDP and IFS to get "beneath the story" to the felt experience. Our conversation is a "compassionate inquiry" into the nature of your trouble, the experience of it in your life, in your mind, in your body, and its origins.
My clients are people like you, they are smart, sincere, and generous people who are often good communicators, but they struggle with the anxiety of feeling judged, feeling "lesser than", people pleasing, feeling shame, feeling detached, disconnected or self-sabotaging. I deeply value my clients words, their stories, their emotional states, and their insight
