I am committed to being a kind and honest partner with you in considering the way your experiences have shaped the way you show up in day-to-day life. Maybe you struggle to know your own limits, set and hold boundaries, or feel truly connected in relationships. Maybe you need to process recent changes in your life, or are seeking to drop deeper into your body. Maybe you are navigating loss or loneliness, or even wondering who you really are.
Together we’ll gently explore which parts of you are thriving, and which parts of you are asking for more care. We will practice tools to support your nervous system and notice what is already working in your life and where you already access support.
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), depth psychotherapy (paying attention to what's "under the surface"), and somatic therapy (befriending your body's natural wisdom and resilience). I look forward to connecting with you!
