I believe in a holistic approach, integrating traditional cognitive therapy and somatic therapeutic techniques with a Christian faith-based perspective.
Change is an inevitable part of life. Sometimes it is welcome and even celebrated; other times change unexpectedly sneaks up and knocks the wind out of us. When life gets challenging, we can all benefit from a trusted companion to provide support and guidance. I am dedicated to walking with you through the depths of grief, the challenges of depression, and the weight of anxiety. With a focus on women's issues and navigating the complexities of parenting adult children, I'm here to offer a beacon of hope and help.

You may be a successful high achieving person, but struggling with feeling like it’s never good enough. Perfectionism seems like a virtue when you’re succeeding, but any difficulties can throw your sense of self-worth off. Even on good days it can feel like things aren’t “quite right”, and you’re not in control. These daily struggles can make you feel resentful, angry, and struggle in your relationships. I specialize in working with perfectionism, OCD, eating disorders, and anxiety.

Working through your senses can help you reconnect to your body to process somatic pain and past hurt for healing today.
You’ve tried talk therapy & it hasn’t helped... Talking about yourself may seem overwhelming when you have so much anxiety, past memories and feel distanced from those you care about. At work, it’s hard for you to hit that ‘off button.’ At home, you stay up late getting caught up in the thoughts of your past or replaying a conversation in your head. Your stress has caused yet another panic attack. Each week is so draining as you hold tension in your shoulders, a swirling spiral of stomach yuck, or feel keyed up as you scroll mindlessly on your phone. You crave relief & direction and haven’t been able to find it anywhere else.

Somatic Therapists

How does somatic therapy work?

Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.

Is EMDR a somatic therapy?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.

Is somatic therapy evidence-based?

Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.

What is somatic trauma therapy?

Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
