As a holistic psychotherapist trained under Dr. Gabor Maté, I center curiosity, the wisdom and guidance of your body, and safe, relational attunement as the most crucial elements in healing. Together, we'll deepen awareness of who you are, what you desire, and gently explore beliefs, patterns and adaptations that may no longer serve you. These adaptive mechanisms, developed to cope with our experiences and environment, are not who we are. The pain they cause can be transformed as we shed light on them, allowing us to heal and to become fully present, releasing fear and shame and restoring connection and your capacity to flourish.
I specialize in healing complex trauma: a wound that hardens within us causing deep pain, interfering with relationships, and narrowing our capacity to respond compassionately to ourselves, others and to challenges, stressors and triggers. "Trauma is not what happens to you, it's what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you."
As we work together we'll identify and create new ways of being and interacting in the world that are rooted in your sovereignty. We'll lean into your innate resources and inner wisdom, locating paths that will guide your growth and restore authentic connection within yourself and beyond.
