You are stuck in a dark maze carrying the crushing pressure of the world to succeed on your chest. While everybody is at the finish line of the race, you are handcuffed to the beginning of the line. The isolation and loneliness feel like a void in the pit of your stomach that is never filled. The emotions are like waves in the ocean, when it comes, it drowns you, and when it's quiet, it's boxed up in a container ready to explode. My post-grad includes the New York School for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy with extensive training in AEDP (focus on here-and-now relational and body - somatic) and EMDR for dating and breakups.
Therapy with me is like a small crack of light in the pitch dark cave. A ray of sunlight coming through with warmth to embrace you. Part of you feel vulnerable to open up but another part of you is a wounded soul that desperately wants relief. Our journey together will guide you out of the maze. Let me take some of the heaviness off of your chest.
I am an empathic and intuitive soulful warrior and wounded healer. I believe so strongly that therapy is sacred. Therapy is transformative like a candle (you) meets a matchstick (me) and ignites a fire in the soul and burns bright when the time, and space allows the catalyst to work its magic! It is an irreplaceable one of a kind relationship.

I often use a mix of modalities that is person centered. In your first session, I will listen to your story and ask questions. On our second session, we may have some fun challenge or do a visualization. One third session we may look into your body and connect with our emotions. Some sessions we do dream interpretations.
