Feeling stuck?

​

What you need to heal is already within you! 

With the right support, you can access your innate capacity to heal, move forward, and reconnect with your sense of aliveness. 

Trauma

Informed

I strive to help my clients feel safe in their bodies so they can tap into their innate capacity to grow, connect, and heal. My goal is for you to feel seen, heard, understood, and respected. No matter how broken you feel, I believe that your nervous system is deeply intelligent and that current dysfunctional patterns were once adaptive survival strategies. 

Brain & Body

Based

In order to heal from trauma, we have to work with our biology, not just our biography. That's why I teach my clients about their nervous systems and how to self-regulate. I go beyond talk therapy and use empirically-supported brain and body-based approaches to treat the underlying cause of current issues.

Mindfulness

Based

While it is important to understand your history, my approach focuses on your experience in the here-and-now. You will be invited to be mindful and curious about your embodied experience including sensations, breath, and emotions. This also means working in the present moment with wounded parts of yourself that are stuck in the past.
