Whether it’s due to genetics, difficult events in our childhood, unforeseen life circumstances, or painful relationships sometimes we feel like we have been created or forced into ways of being that are painful. Sometimes those traumas show up as depression or anxiety, sometimes as dissociation or feelings we don't belong. I’m passionate about working with folks who recognize the pain of big and small traumas alike, and care about making the world a better place for us all to exist in. Sometimes that means understanding what happened to us better, sometimes that means changing our relationships with others and/or ourselves.
I have training in various forms of therapy, primarily drawing from ACT, Narrative therapy, and EMDR to help you understand and process what has happened, why you feel, think, and act the way you do and to help you develop new insights and ways of being that feel more authentic to who you are and who you want to be.
The most important factor in creating positive change in therapy is the relationship between the therapist and client. So finding a good fit is the most important step you can take. For a free consultation, or if just want to ask some questions, feel free to contact me via email or phone.
