I believe that everyone has an innate desire to heal, whose potential can be unlocked with the right conditions of safety and non-judgmental support. If we can slow down enough to notice what needs our attention, each of us can heal ourselves. I view therapy as a weekly, collaborative ritual in which clients can reconnect with their intuitive abilities and reach their highest potentials. Integrating tools from mindfulness-based practices, somatic experiencing, and trauma-informed psychotherapy. I offer a holistic approach in which we function collectively to uncover your inherent wisdom and reclaim total authenticity.
I love working with therapists, entrepreneurs, nomads, LGBTQ+ folks, people of multi-cultural experiences, empaths/ HSP's, spiritual seekers, parents, energy workers, educators, facilitators, couples, wounded inner children, people going through life transitions, people experiencing grief, and people ready to tap into their inner healer.
Through collaboration, I trust you will discover that the issues that first prompted you to seek therapy will present opportunities for your own personal development that may otherwise go unrealized.
