My deepest intention is to grow compassion and human connection. My greatest hope through our work together is for you to know you are whole and worthy of love and belonging. With over 20 years as a therapist, educator and mindfulness facilitator, I offer integrative psychotherapy, wellness coaching and group programs. My work is informed by mindfulness and compassion practices, the neuroscience of trauma and attachment, the work of Dr. Brene Brown and the mind-body connection.
As an engaged, collaborative and integrative therapist, I offer quality, lasting treatment that incorporates somatic experiences, relational styles, cognitive processes and skill development. Mindfulness and mind-body practices allow us to gain a deeper understanding of current and historic struggles.
Through our work, you will come to know and utilize your existing strengths and resources and develop skills and practices so you can live an authentic, wholehearted and courageous life. Get in touch for more information or to book an appointment.
