Great to meet you!

People who seek me out generally identify with experiencing a history of trauma, grief, attachment wounds, or chronic stress that’s preventing them from living their best lives.

I work most effectively with individuals who are open to a less traditional therapy experience and a direct, relational communication style.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Is anxiety, depression, or chronic stress preventing you from feeling present in your life? Have you done a lot of therapy but continue to find yourself feeling stuck, hopeless, or full of dread?

My time as a healing professional has reinforced that trauma & chronic stress are stored not just in our minds, but also in our bodies and nervous systems. That is often why talk therapy is not enough. As a result, I’ve been most effective with modalities that utilize the brain, body, & nervous system.

What you can expect from our first session

I use a mix of Brainspotting (often referred to as a more gentle, more effective version of EMDR), TRE (Tension/Trauma Releasing Exercises), Somatic Experiencing, and mindfulness in my work.

That being said, I believe that a successful therapy experience is most importantly based in a strong, trusting client/therapist relationship. I look forward to helping you trust your inner wisdom and following where the process takes us.
