In an average day there are often many things to think about. It is not always easy to consistently remain in touch with what nurtures your mind, body and spirit. Therapy can be a compass point that offers sustained self-support for how you move through life. In sessions, we explore ways to understand how thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected, and build the ability to hold life with more acceptance. Therapy can nurture the story that helps us find a way back toward ourselves, to define something we unaware of, or find a metaphor that can guide us from where we feel stuck toward the next steps.

Some clients come to me when they are at a point in their lives where they are ready for change and aren’t sure how to make that change happen. Others are tired of sitting in the passenger’s seat while their emotions drive and control their lives. I see all of these scenarios as an opportunity to help untangle and reorganize the mess that life ultimately turns into sometimes and to help provide a sense of relief and comfort to those struggling to figure out how to do so on their own.

I specialize in helping clients let go of the negative emotions that keep people anchored in the past or afraid of the future. These emotions are usually part of either an acute (one time) or chronic (on-going) traumas that a client has experienced in his or her life. Once the emotions are dissolved, the trauma no longer has power over a client and the client has more energy to enjoy life, both present and future.
