I studied Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, and Mindfulness in great depth.
Welcome. If you’re here, likely something is going on in your life that you would like to change. Perhaps you’re overwhelmed, sad, anxious, tired, in pain, on edge, bingeing on a substance or the internet, or having sleep issues. Trouble communicating with loved ones? Disconnected rather than connected? Maybe you can’t quite put your finger on it, but life just isn’t what it was, what you thought it would be, or what you would like. Anger, sadness, anxiety, disappointment, worry all play a part in everyone’s life, but sometimes it increases to the point where it’s just too much to handle alone.

I also use Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to heal trauma, along with mindfulness techniques to help you stay present and connected during our sessions.
My clients feel overwhelmed by the weight of past trauma, ongoing stress, or burnout from their personal or professional life. They may have tried to cope on their own, but they now realize they need support in processing their experiences and finding sustainable ways to manage their well-being. The couples that I see are navigating the complexities of intercultural relationships, significant life changes, or those who are seeking to repair their bond and rebuild trust. They might be struggling with communication barriers, conflicting values, or unresolved hurts that have created distance and misunderstanding.
