Taking the step to begin counseling requires vulnerability and courage, and you are so brave for being here. You may be feeling overwhelmed, in a challenging relationship, or hoping to find more purpose. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, or perfectionism and want life to feel less challenging. You may have experienced a traumatic event and need someone to help hold your story so you can shift to living in a place of security instead of fear. In counseling sessions, I stay present with you and help you identify patterns that are no longer serving you so you can begin to live more fully in your truth.
I work with adults healing complex trauma in the office and outdoors. I also work with couples looking to free their relationship from painful cycles and stuck places and into more security and connection utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I work from a trauma-informed and body-based approach.
My clients say that I bring authenticity and a soul-level kindness to my work. The therapeutic relationship is sacred and I will hold your story with the most care. I aim to provide a secure space, free of judgement for you to share your story while also facilitating experiences that help you go deeper, allowing you to make the changes you are hoping for.
