I provide support to individuals, couples and children who want to further experience a sense of meaning, authenticity and agency in their lives. Challenges I work with are trauma( PTSD & CPTSD), anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, mens work, ADHD/Autism/neurodivergence, eco-anxiety and psychedelic integration. I help couples recognize repeating patterns, substituting defensiveness with clear vulnerable communication, and strengthen intimacy. You may be in a dark night, finding your thread, or desiring a creative emboldened life.
I have an integrative approach that allows us to meet and tailor you to what it is you're working on. This includes trauma and neurodivergent-informed Somatic Parts Work, Focusing, Jungian, Gestalt, Psychodynamics, EFT (emotionally focused couples therapy), shame-work, life-organization with an emphasis on creating wholeness and aliveness.
I believe shifting into new patterns of greater wellbeing takes place through attention to all levels: bio-chemical, psychological, emotional, social, environmental and spiritual. I look forward to being with and supporting you through the challenges life gives us. Reach out to book a free 20 minute consultation.
