Through the ups and downs of life, one thing remains a constant— you. I help my clients foster a relationship with themselves with a sense of curiosity, acceptance, and grace. Life can be tough and confusing, but you are strong and resilient. I want to walk alongside you, hear your story, and offer a safe space for expression and exploration. It is my belief that people make sense- the person who starves themselves, or isolates when sad, or can’t find relief from that nervous feeling in their stomach, all make sense. You are not alone. Let’s walk towards healing together.
Although each individual’s time in therapy looks different, I am rooted in a focus on relationship- your relationship to yourself, your relationship to your loved ones, and your relationship to the world around. I offer an eclectic and collaborative approach to therapy utilizing mindfulness training, attachment, EMDR, and the input of clients to guide us.
Therapy can be really scary and hard, even frustrating at times. But it can also be healing, restorative, and life giving. I would be honored to join you during this part of your healing journey.
