Are you ready for deep and lasting change? Are you willing to practice self-compassion for those wounded parts that hold you back from a fulfilling life? Therapy is a courageous act of exploring and releasing old wounds, discovering and embracing authenticity, and learning to make conscious choices with compassion. I have nineteen years of experience using a unique blend of integrative therapies that include somatic awareness, mindfulness, Jungian psychology, and spiritually focused counseling that will allow you to uncover subconscious traumatic patterns, internalized cognitive distortions, and maladaptive coping strategies.

Are you sick and tired of being stuck and feeling pained because of trauma and past painful experiences? Are you not sure about your life story and what it really means to be you? Do you feel slighted, and minimized by others? Do you have few people who really understand where you are coming from? Trauma can bring and keep individuals down sometimes with and even without provocation.

I know how it feels to contemplate going to therapy, and I always found it both scary and intimidating. That’s why I aim to make the process as relaxed and down-to-earth as possible. I show up to sessions as my authentic self, and I want you to do the same. As a person-centered and affirming therapist, I believe that we all deserve self-love, healthy and fulfilling relationships, and a life of purpose and joy. I believe that we can heal from past traumas, find our own power, and experience alignment in mind, body, and spirit. The work isn't easy, but I bring humor and humanity into it, and I value the therapeutic relationship.
