Healing can be a complicated journey, but you don't have to do it alone. As a therapist I am here to partner with you on your healing journey, and guide you through the tough times. If you are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, PTSD or if you are struggling to navigate life transitions, relationship obstacles, or family challenges please don't hesitate to reach out for support! Together we can create the space that you need in order to safely heal and navigate your personal journey.
Using compassion and mindfulness- based interventions, as well as restorative practices I specialize in trauma and attachment focused therapy. I also specialize in family systems therapy taking a holistic environmental approach to youth and family challenges.
You are so courageous for considering taking the next step in your healing journey! Let's connect so you can explore what type of support is here for you.
