My intention in therapy is to keep it meaningful and simple; that each person walks away with something practical that can be used right away to ameliorate suffering for yourself and in your relationships. Being a creative person, there is rarely a session without some incorporation of art, play, or experiential technique. I aim to be a facilitator of healing, facilitator meaning “to make easy”. What better way to make something easy then through fun and creativity? Prior to licensing as a therapist I worked in leadership. I have a passion for burnout prevention, compassion fatigue, and the working wounded.

If you're a mother who is searching for mental health support because you're feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, overstimulated, like you're just not coping, or you're working on breaking cycles of generational trauma and re-parenting yourself, you are most certainly not alone. A safe space to talk about these unique challenges of motherhood with someone who understands can be so validating and healing.

Availability this week! Attollo is Latin for 'rise' or 'elevate'. The humans we work with are looking to elevate their experience so they can live their best life, manage whatever comes their way and perform their best, on demand. We work with all humans, and specialize in working with high-achievers (i.e., athletes, performers, executives, high-stress positions) as we understand the balance needed to prioritize both the person and performance. Individuals come to us for support with their well-being and mental health, or to improve their skills to manage challenges and continue to grow and flourish in all aspects of life.

I am focused on helping people with Autism and ADHD. I have personal experiences with these as well. I am also able to help individuals, couples and families who are wanting to learn to trust themselves more. I take special interest in managing conflict as I feel it is likely where the most growth is to occur. That being said, I recognize that it can be a very uncomfortable experience. Relationships are a high risk, high reward situation. I want to help facilitate these conversations as much as possible.

I believe everyone has a story to tell and providing a non-judgmental and therapeutic environment for my clients to tell their stories is my top priority. This includes understanding that each client is the expert of their own experience, with their own cultural and spiritual background. Everyone, including myself, has struggled with mental health challenges at some point in their life. No matter the pain or darkness you are experiencing, you do not have to do it alone. I am humbled and honored to walk beside individuals as they move forward in their healing journey.
