You have BIG feelings and they get the best of you and you lose it or you hide them so the world can’t use them against you. But you can’t slow down for fear of what may happen if painful memories overwhelm you. There are parts of you that are just too much and you don't know what to do. You want to break down unhelpful patterns of overthinking, build self-esteem and be able to say "no". You can learn about how your mind & body work together - let me help you with that. I believe that you are the expert of your own experience and often just need to be led to insight and change.
You deserve to slow down, connect and heal. Therapy can help you do that. When you fully show up you’ll be able to break it down and rebuild. Learning how your past impacts your present and how to manage it differently can help you go from surviving to thriving. Therapy can be tough, but it’s worth it - and so are you.
Are you ready to reclaim authority in your life and dive into the work of transformation? Let's chat! I'm here to help incorporate all of what you have experienced into a life worth living. I'm ready to help you get out of the woods. Come find me at www.throughthewoodstherapyinc.com

I work with clients who maybe struggling with anxiety, anger or trauma related to their family and/or relationships. During our initial sessions we will work towards an understanding of the all parts of you as well as a crash course in mind/body connection. Most clients can see change quickly in their responses to triggers and more flexibility in their responses.

I often use IFS techniques in my practice. In the first sessions, I will introduce you to the model and we will begin to talk in 'parts' language. You'll get to know these parts better, learn to listen, validate and be compassionate towards these parts. Only then can you begin to heal the wounded childhood parts that created them.
