Are you finding yourself anxious or stressed frequently? Do you have difficulties engaging with peers? Is it difficult for you to focus on work or assignments? Have you gone through a traumatic experience in your life like losing a loved one, a car crash, a medical trauma, or a recent separation from a loved one? I am here to support you through whatever traumas or life challenges you are facing. As we move past these traumas, you will find more productivity, improved relationships with peers, and more peace and joy in your life.
I believe that a disorder/trauma happens to you; it does not define you. I will support you to have a mind and body connection by slowing down and giving space for you to explore sensations in your body allowing for more regulation of your nervous system. With increased regulation you can move from surviving to thriving.
With a gentle and warm approach we will move at a pace that feels comfortable to you. I will bring you to a sense of completion at the end of each session so you feel my support stay with you until we meet again.

In anger management sessions we will explore the sensations that occur during the triggers that lead to aggressive behaviors. During sessions to support anxiety, we will locate where in the body the anxiety is felt and discover ways to settle those areas. Stress can be eased in the session by exploring and bringing awareness to places of more ease, space, and relaxation in the body.

Using art and storytelling in sessions with teens, allows for a playful approach to address deeper emotions, when connecting the activities to somatic sensations. With both teens and adults I use Somatic Experiencing therapy to move between pleasant and unpleasant sensations in the body, in order for sessions to feel manageable.
