As humans, we are interested in living meaningful and connected lives. And sometimes we find ourselves overwhelmed, defeated, and confused about how to move forward. Our strategies may no longer be working for us or we face challenges we aren't sure how to navigate. Therapy can help us understand the ways we experience thoughts and emotions, develop effective ways of interacting with the world around us, and approach life more consistently with what we value. Having someone join us on our journey of growth and development can be a powerful experience particularly when they are trained to understand how people grow and change.

You’re considered to be quite successful in many areas of your life. Even though you know this is true, you don’t feel like you’re doing well at the moment. You’re smart, capable, and usually able to solve your problems, but trying to “fix” your emotional struggles just hasn’t worked. The demands of your work and personal life feel like they're just too much for you to handle right now. Your relationship with your partner might be a struggle. You may feel burned out.

My clients are NeuroDivergent individuals or their families and supports whose experience of the world is overwhelming. They are in need of hope, encouragement and direction in order to feel whole and valued. Their overwhelm has led to frustration and uncertainty over possibilities, and what to do next. They arrive, feeling unsafe in their environments, unable to communicate so they are understood, and unappreciated for who they truly are. By establishing a safe relationship and working environment we create the tools necessary to be heard, seen and appreciated. These are the missing cornerstones of their growth and expansion.

I see therapy as an opportunity for self discovery, healing and a safe space to work our growing edges. My approach is holistic, mindfulness based and rooted in psycho-spiritual inquiry.

Through a somatic (body-centered) approach, I support my clients in living a more empowered and embodied state of being.
