Are you ready to heal? Ready to break unhealthy patterns that no longer serve you? I can help. I provide a therapeutic relationship and setting that is a living sanctuary for your heart and soul. In the darkest night of unimaginable pain and grief, one hand to hold, one heart to listen, can be all that's needed to make it until the sun rises again
For those who feel lost, alone, heartbroken or grieving, I offer my presence, compassion, and empathy. I work relationally with a humanistic, transpersonal framework and utilize holistic, integrative, somatic, mindfulness, and trauma-sensitive approaches to help you develop your inner strength and resilience. I am Somatic EMDR and Brainspotting trained
I hold space for your transformative spiritual, transpersonal, and exceptional human experiences. Exploring childhood, inter-generational, and ancestral trauma, I am a compassionate companion on the healing journey. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation so you can see if I am the right therapist for you on your path toward healing and self-realization.
