In my years of experience I have come to realize so much about living in the world robs us of our ability to acknowledge our own magic. Therapy should be a safe place for you to begin to reclaim that magic and learn how to discover your own power. By using a "bottom to top" approach to identify how long held, negative beliefs, have kept you reliving and repeating the past, you can finally live in the present. I provide a safe, non judgemental space for you to work through trauma and reclaim the power inherent in you.
I bring unique insight and empathy to the experience of living in a world that is not made for mental health struggles or marginalized people and how our identity can intersect with trauma. I use this as well as my years of experience and training in integrated trauma treatment, EMDR, and psychodynamic modalities to support you in your journey.
I believe "what has been wounded in a relationship must be, after all, healed in a relationship"- "A Shining Affliction" by Annie G Rogers, Ph.D.
