Hi there. Amid life's challenges, it takes courage to seek help, and I commend you for taking that brave first step. Together, we will embark on a path of healing and growth, creating a safe haven where you can freely express yourself without fear of judgment. I believe in your inherent wisdom and expertise in your own life. Through our collaborative approach, we will unlock the answers that already reside within you. Guided by a holistic perspective, we will integrate the mind, body, and soul to foster true healing and lasting change. Welcome to a transformative journey toward well-being and self-discovery.
I use an integrative approach incorporating EMDR, Somatic IFS, and attachment, focusing on the root causes of your struggles not just the symptoms. Whether you're navigating life's complexities, battling anxiety or depression, or coping with complex/childhood trauma and PTSD, I am here to provide compassionate care that resonates with your individual needs.
For couples and families seeking harmony and connection, rest assured that our sessions will be thoughtfully customized to address the dynamics specific to your relationships. Together, we will navigate life's challenges and uncover the strength that lies within you. Seeking help is a courageous step towards a brighter future. Contact me for a free consult.
