You might be coping with anxiety and stress that disrupts your quality of life, trying to heal from adverse life experiences, adjusting to a big change, or grieving a loss that carries a lot of significance and impact. You’re here because you’re looking for a safe, supportive, judgment free space to show up as yourself. You’ve tried traditional talk therapy but need something more. You’re ready to shed behaviors, feelings, and ways of thinking that no longer work for you. You’re motivated for a life that is infused with authenticity, purpose and connection.
I provide a trauma-informed, somatic approach to healing that values staying curious and being fully present with each of my clients. Together, we’ll work to release the negative effects of stress and trauma on your nervous system, mind, and spirit. You’ll feel secure in your ability to be yourself and approach your future with confidence.
There's no shame in exploring different aspects of your experiences, identity, and relationships.Taking time to attune to your mind, feelings, body, relationships or values is a powerful expression of self-compassion and healing. I welcome you to reach out to me. I will meet you where you are and explore how we can work together to reach your wellness goals.
