Reconnect to life, nature & your authentic self. Cultural pressures, defenses, fears, fantasies & attachment styles serve as guides to a deep story about your origins, unique needs & desires. Rather than condemn symptoms, let's get curious and engage in creative exploration. You can mourn your losses, build resilience & embark on a meaningful relationship with personal goals to take ownership of your narrative. Together, we can unearth ingrained beliefs that do not serve your true purpose & desire to grow, discover tools to thrive, & reignite your authentic self expression, hopefulness, connection with others, & your life force.
My therapeutic approach is warm & non-judgemental. Guided by your pace, story, & chosen path, I will accompany you with curiosity, affirming your growth process as you build deeper connections through a dynamic range of tools including somatic, imaginal, depth, nature-based, internal family systems, & trauma processing techniques.
Drawing from my experience as a creative & mother I specialize in supporting those engaged in creative fields, parents, teens, and adolescents weathering the storms of loss, transition, anger, emotional upheaval, uncertainty, & the darkest depths of self-exploration, as well as relationships in crisis &/ or desiring greater intimacy and communication skills.
