I am so glad you are taking this first step. I know how hard it can be to get started. I am here to help you feel comfortable throughout this process. I help individuals and couples who are feeling stuck, hopeless, lonely or disconnected from others. I specialize in relational trauma, relationship distress, and family of origin challenges. Anything less than nurturing that has happened to you, can be stored in the body as trauma. I am deeply passionate about helping individuals, and couples, make sense of past experiences so they can live more freely and authentically in the present.
In our first few sessions, we will collaborate to create goals and choose a comfortable path forward. I specialize in approaches such as EFT and Gottman for couples. I use DBT for anyone feeling overwhelmed by emotions such as shame, anxiety, fear, guilt, anger and grief. I am also trained in EMDR, which is a highly effective treatment for trauma.
At the core of my practice is my commitment to creating a welcoming space that feels warm and accepting. My goal is to help you feel more happiness, self-compassion, and inner peace through genuine connection, empathy and specialized care. Please feel free to reach out for a consultation. I will absolutely make time to connect and listen.
