The impacts of past pain can leave us feeling drained, overwhelmed and confused about our path forward. We can lack a sense of self-worth, after being hurt by the very people who were supposed to take care of us. I help clients reconnect to their inner power to reparent and restore lost parts of themselves. I guide clients in reawakening their naturally empowered, vibrant selves. I specialize in working with adult individuals and couples, seeking healing and connection both inside of themselves, and within their closest relationships. I also work with teenagers and their families.
I offer a trauma-focused, relational and holistic approach to therapy. I hold certifications in EMDR, and have extensive training in Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy. I also have acquired 500 hours in professional yoga-teacher training and a graduate certificate in Integrative Holistic Health and Wellness.
I offer a warm and safe space to process the burdens past and present pain.
I'll walk beside you as you discover ways to navigate life's stressors, restructure your relationships, and release limiting stories, all while becoming more authentically you.
Reach out if you feel called, and let's begin together.
