We are living in unprecedented times filled with great challenge and incredible opportunity for growth. Global and personal events can leave us feeling isolated, disconnected, anxious and depressed. We search for meaning and purpose amidst the overwhelm of loss, transition, disease and chronic pain. Yet, this chaos can be the grit that moves us toward greater awareness and freedom. Support, connection, compassion and skilled guidance can help us forge new pathways in our lives, our brains and our bodies. We then have more capacity to reclaim our inherent joy, creativity and the power to build a positive light-filled future.
My practice weaves together a variety of trauma-informed modalities including Mindfulness, CBT, EMDR, and a Strengths-based approach. In safe and sacred space, we explore difficult places, unwind patterns, express feelings, and discover new insights, passions and awareness. Clients describe me as grounded, compassionate, intuitive, kind and non-judgmental.
Whether we realize it or not, we are intrinsically connected to all Life. When one of us heals, we all do. I find great joy in helping people find their true selves and become more empowered, peaceful and balanced. As we mend our separation from Self, each other, and Earth, we create a more sustainable world. Shall we venture on this journey together?
