My Approach to Helping

I specialize in using somatic (body based) education and interventions with my individual clients to treat common challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma & PTSD, low self esteem, negative self image, attachment concerns, coping with chronic illness, and others. And with my couples clients I still utilize somatic education in order to support understanding "triggers" and the outcomes on the individual and the couple, as well as enneagram, and classic communication building tools, which I pull from Imago Relationship Therapy and Gottman Institute interventions.
My approach is incredibly warm and personable, as I find that most people respond better to a therapist that shows their humanity rather than keeps themselves separate and detached. My way is to honor the whole experience of my clients in body, mind, and heart, and support clients in developing a genuine care and curiosity for themselves. Through this gentle attunement to the self comes the healing and change you have been so longing for! If you are ready to see and experience yourself differently, then I am ready to be a loving witness to your growth!

Groups I Work With

    I work with people and who are looking for meaningful change in their life, not just symptom management. Most of my individual clients are working on issues related to self worth and limiting beliefs about themselves. These limitations are manifested in feelings of anxiety, depression, self doubt, procrastination and low motivation, or even illness.
    Generally, my couple's clients are looking for help in developing their communications skills and rebuilding a sense of connection and closeness that got lost in the stress and circumstance of life. I also see couples are at the crossroads of whether they want to stay and work on the relationship or consciously move towards breaking up. I value the opportunity to be a guide during this crucial moment in their relationship journey.
    So, if you are ready to see yourself or your relationship differently, then don't hesitate to give me a call or send me an email today. You don't have to do it alone.
