Ready for something different? I offer somatically informed, depth-oriented Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to conscientious caregivers, successful creatives, and thoughtful professionals seeking mindfully paced support for anxiety and burnout.
When we’re struggling with anxiety or burnout, we can feel locked into exhausting patterns that feel both familiar and yet not like “ourselves,” such as people-pleasing, overthinking, or self-doubt. IFS therapy guides you through a relational process of root-level healing for the overburdened “parts” of you that drive these patterns—so that you can feel like your "Self" again.
Earnest, trauma-informed, and collaborative, I blend mindfulness and somatic (embodied) awareness with relational/psychodynamic and Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS). Together, we'll connect the dots between the conditions of your upbringing and the strategies you took on to cope, and you’ll discover new ways of easing the tensions that keep you stuck.
I welcome curious, committed, creative, down-to-earth, self-reflective people to my practice, as well as therapists seeking individual or group consultation in IFS. (I'm also a Level 3 Certified IFS Therapist and Approved Clinical Consultant.) To get started, contact me for a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation.
