By doing this, a more secure and trusting relationship with yourself can begin to develop.
I practice from a somatic (body-listening) approach. Together we begin naming and recognizing your nervous system states, develop habits in orienting to safety, and provide time, space, and support for your body to complete natural somatic stress release cycles. Sometimes movement is used, and everything is invitational and by choice.

You are troubled by some aspects of your significant relationships and are motivated to improve them even if it means having to change yourself and what you are doing in those relationships.
I offer a set of simple tools which help people see their own circumstances more clearly and thus they can see what they must do to create what they need. While these tools are simple, using them is not. This may be the hardest work you will ever do.

Big thoughts and feelings are playing out in your mind, body and relationships.
What do clients enjoy about me? I make therapy personal and accessible, not clinical. No high-level skills. No instructions to do something you don't want to do. My approach is warm and direct, fostering self-compassion and emphasizing your resilience. I show up as myself so you can show up as yourself, as difficult as that can be sometimes.
