Welcome, glad you're here! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. Creating a trusting environment for you is paramount. I am passionate about helping people feel safe, validated, and heard. This is a collaborative experience where we'll examine relationships and communication, increase self-compassion and emotional regulation, and develop insights into your beliefs and behaviors. We can also explore how the body’s internal multi-system mode of communication influences health and comprehensive wellness. I want to help you feel empowered, live your most satisfying life, and be the best version of yourself.
Since therapy is a unique, interactive process, my style is client-centered and relational. I use therapeutic approaches that are informed by current research in neuroscience and trauma such as Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, and Compassionate Inquiry as well as offer an insight-oriented perspective and psychoeducational information and resources.
We all have a story to tell and I am here to listen. I am the "empathic witness" helping you make sense of your felt experiences, reclaim your vibrancy, and reconnect with your true Self. Let's notice, honor, and “welcome all of your parts” with compassionate curiosity. Together, we look at the past to inform the present and work towards a brighter future.
