About
It's hard to maintain balance in an intense world. Connecting with a safe, trained professional can help you uncover your strengths, resolve trauma, & increase peace. I'm eager to help my clients practice mindful coping, employ a solutions-focus, & attend to/soothe embodied sensations that arise as the wheel of the mind turns. I believe the richest healing unfolds in our therapeutic relationship - where we collaborate, build trust, work through what arises in the moment. As a person-centered psychotherapist, I meet you where you are as you are. Let's talk!
As a graduate student I attended one of the nation's first Somatic Psychology programs. I support the body-mind connection, employ an attachment-perspective. As a white therapist, I am trained in supporting Black and other clients of color. I have completed level 1 of the Trauma Resiliency Model, am thoroughly trained on LGBTQ+ and Transgender Mental Health.
Please don't hesitate to reach out! And for other options, consider my excellent Registered Associate MFTs (offering more availability and affordability than I can at this time) by visiting this link: bit.ly/PLWAssociates Reach out anytime, with any questions. :)
