I believe that as individuals make sense of their story they create the life they were designed for. Using trauma-informed modalities like Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems, I work with adults who want to heal from issues related to trauma, depression, anxiety, domestic/ interpersonal violence, grief, childhood neglect/ abuse, religious trauma, spiritual abuse, feeling stuck or sensing that something is just “not right."
By integrating my clinical training in mental health counseling with my training in mindfulness, somatic work and inner healing techniques, I help clients heal from past wounding. Clients with complex trauma often feel they are accelerating their progress by using modalities such as Somatic Therapy, Sandtray, Expressive Arts Therapy, Brainspotting and IFS.
If you are someone who is struggling, exhausted and ready for change... or if you are someone who is unsure about counseling, reach out and see if I might be a good fit for you. If I'm not the right fit, I'll help you find someone who is. I work with people from a variety of backgrounds and am sensitive to religious and cultural differences.
