My Approach to Helping
Whatever you are facing, together you and I will gently explore which parts of you are asking for more care, and where you might access more nourishment and resource. We will practice tools to rewire your nervous system so you can gain more flexibility in responding to life's challenges.
My work is trauma-informed and influenced by relational psychotherapy (trying out ways of relating in therapy, as a sort of "lab experience" for real life), and somatic therapy (listening and attending to what is happening your body).
I hold an MA in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School and am a Somatic Experiencing practitioner-in-training at the beginning level. I also studied somatic practices through a 60-hour Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy Certificate program with The Embody Lab.
