Challenging situations can be nudges for you to take time and look inside to recognize them as opportunities to heal, grow, and to make changes needed to break free from feeling stuck, lead a more satisfying life, heal relationships, and bring you back to feeling like yourself again. Whether you're having some 'difficult to feel' or painful emotions, childhood trauma, feeling stuck in a relationship, going through a life transition, or just the uncertainty and stress of the world, therapy can be a wonderful place to begin to take time for yourself.
I offer a safe, neutral space to build on your personal strengths and what's working right for you. Through mindfulness and other tools, we can work together to be fully present; to compassionately explore parts of yourself that may hold limiting beliefs and patterns and shed what is no longer beneficial for you.
Clients tell me my approach is warm, respectful and non-judgmental. I hold an authentic partnership that will help you reach your goals. I deeply honor my clients and their experiences--it always touching for me to witness their inner wisdom emerge and innate ability to heal happen naturally.

I primarily use mindfulness based and nervous system regulation approaches. Since most current symptoms begin from a ongoing fight/flight or shut down response, we'll work together to explore which regulation tools can help you feeling more like yourself again. Developing a strong sense of self compassion also helps change the nervous system and is a wonderful tool to start feeling better soon.
