Relationships are important. Your relationship with yourself impacts your relationship with others. Your relationships with others (coworkers, neighbors, family) play a significant role in your life and theirs. You may even have pets and/or a spiritual nature. These, too, are relational. The only person you can change is yourself. Changing yourself changes your world, which includes all these relationships.

You might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and like you're carrying the weight of the world. Maybe you want to reconnect with a sense of aliveness and peace in your system. I offer somatic, mindfulness based therapy and brainspotting to help clients get unstuck and reconnect with the version of themselves they dream of.
