About
Finding our way back to our whole self can be a difficult journey, one that asks us to connect with feelings not yet owned, wounds not yet processed, and longings not yet voiced. When our needs for comfort, validation, protection, and predictability are not met in our relationships, we can be vulnerable to feeling unworthy, unsafe, and that our needs are unimportant. The strategies we have for dealing with our unmet needs often show up in similar patterns for managing stress, distress, and disconnection. Some move towards others, hoping that if we fight loud, long, or hard enough, our pain and anger will eventually be acknowledged.
Some move away from others, minimizing or numbing emotions to keep from being hurt or judged. Over time, we can cut off the parts of ourselves we fear will be unacceptable, and take on strategies/protections to prevent us from experiencing further harm. I work with individuals and couples to reconnect, build security, and identify and share unmet needs.
We consider the ways relationships have shaped you and influence present-day interactions. Together, we will bring understanding to places of reactivity, validation to still-open wounds, and clarity to unmet needs. I work to foster inner resilience, strength in vulnerability, and tap into the unparalleled power of connection. I offer a 10% military discount.
