Pain is a sign that something needs our attention. When we are not aware of helpful ways to manage it, we look to what is available to us to cope as a survival tactic. We might numb our symptoms through food, social media, strained relationships, substances, perfectionism, excessive busyness- leaving us feeling disconnected or in constant conflict with others & ourselves. I believe in truth, empathy, & belonging. I vow to create a space where you will not be judged but validated in all that you are. I view therapy as collaborative. You are the expert of you and your story & I am your guide in learning tools to use to feel empowered.
People pleaser? Let's dig in. My approach is attachment based, psychodynamic, & relational. We seek to understand how relationships, environments, & stories impact your well-being. If we are wounded in relationship, we heal in safe relationship. I work from a lens that takes in the importance of power, culture, intersectionality, & collective experiences.
Sometimes we don’t have the words to describe what we feel but the memories are still stored in our body causing us to feel unwell. We have the option to use art as a way to explore & express in sessions if words just feel too hard. And, it's fun. You can live a life rooted in love & agency- to feel healthy, balanced, & valued. Let's goooo, you deserve this!
