Everyone has a story to be told. I believe the relationship that we cultivate with our individual stories has an impact on our quality of life. I specialize in supporting individuals working through life experiences, such as, trauma, adjustments, relational issues, grief and loss, low self-esteem anxiety and depression. My intention is to provide a safe and compassionate space for individuals to share their journey by taking an introspective look within. Through this lens we learn to acknowledge our life experience, tend to our needs and rediscover authentic expression.
I have a genuine passion for providing space for individuals to address emotional distress and mental barriers that create blockages toward living a fulfilled life. My practice derives from a holistic and trauma-based framework of care. I have a background in community health and also with providing support to women and children along their healing journey
We all deserve a safe space for our stories to be told and held with care. A space to heal, to remember, to retreat, to release, to laugh, to grow, to love. Please reach out if you're interested in or find resonance in my practice. I would love to connect and learn more about supporting you along your journey.
