I like to say “the breadcrumbs make the bread" - it is the little things that add up.

Do you prioritize other people's needs over your own? Do you avoid expressing your needs and feelings, have self-doubt, imposter syndrome, have difficulty setting boundaries, find yourself in toxic relationships and very easily slip into a caretaker's role? You might have had difficult experiences growing up that shaped your understanding of people and relationships. Childhood trauma can affect the choices we make as adults resulting in loneliness, anxiety and depression. If you are tired of these patterns, want to take charge of your life and are ready to form healthy reciprocal relationships then you have come to the right place.

I believe in the value of connecting to the body as a way of healing developmental trauma. This trauma could be manifesting in different ways, physically, mentally, emotionally or a combination of all. My work is grounded in psychological theory, evidence-based practices and incorporates mindfulness.

Life is hard! Whether it be stressors of everyday life, family or marital issues, school or work-related problems or because of recent or past trauma/grief, life can become messy. It gets hard not only for oneself, but also for loved ones or those around us. The reality is it happens to ALL of us.

No matter what it is we need, therapy is the first step. Therapy equips us with the tools that we need to face whatever hardships we have.

Therapy is a gift. It is a chance to finally be heard, understood, and supported. -Bessel Van Der Kolk. The "gift of therapy" is a profound experience that enables you to explore your unique being and authentic self. It presents you with an opportunity to face head-on any challenges, pains, losses, life transitions, or struggles that might be hindering your personal growth and progress. Seeking therapy can empower you to embark on a journey of self-exploration and change, enabling you to overcome any obstacles that might be holding you back.

You may have a goal of living a meaningful life in all its richness and seeking help with interpersonal or mental health symptom related concerns? Depression, anxiety, history of trauma? Are you, your family or relations journeying through life transitions or in need of support related to medical-health concerns?

More importantly, I work with compassion, empathy, and am non-judgmental, while creating a safe space for you to explore and understand.

Hey, your life is fine. Others have it worse, right? No one needs to know that you’re struggling. In fact, the image of yourself that the world sees is not really you, so would they truly care if you did share how you’re doing? You can’t ignore that gut feeling that the real you is too messy and strange for others to like or even understand. You hide your true feelings until it all becomes overwhelming and you feel out of control again. Maybe you can’t stop crying or you pull away from everyone and live on autopilot. Your old way of handling things is not cutting it, and maybe the frustration has you hoping for something better.
