Waitlist for new clients
You spend your time doing everything for everyone else, while neglecting yourself and never feeling like you have done enough. You’re constantly procrastinating and feel dread about even the little things because it’s all too much. You worry that the plates in the air will fall, and everyone will realize you are incapable and incompetent. You feel like you are failing at everything, when, in fact, you’re killing it. It feels like a hard life is your destiny because of the trauma in your past. You want to break the cycle of that generational trauma, but you don’t know where to start. Sound familiar?

It's important to process mental barriers that are getting in the way of happiness (typically via EMDR or IFS), which then greatly facilitates taking action towards goals.
It's an unfortunate reality, but many people never reach their full potential in life; there always seems to be one or more things holding them back. This can be due to past traumatic experiences, a difficult childhood, their own thoughts, etc... the list is endless! As a result, anxiety and depression can set in.

With an extensive history of working with trauma-impacted youth and adults, I look to bring peace and healing using a multi-faceted approach. Most of us go through life with our bodies and minds disengaged from one another; I believe we must bridge that gap in order to build & protect our internal peace. As an RPCV in West Africa to working with Deaf youth, I have been humbled to to align and ally myself with beautiful populations and cultures and believe that therapeutic rapport is the key to working towards goals set by my clients.
