Through my clinical/personal experience, I've learned how life transitions, intricate relationships, and unresolved trauma can trigger a range of internal and external reactions that stray from our core values. I firmly believe that when our nervous system responds to traumatic events, the resulting adaptive energy sometimes remains within the body, creating dysfunctional patterns that perpetuate emotional, somatic, and psychological distress, ultimately leaving us feeling stuck and isolated. We can work together to reestablish your emotional and physical well-being, laying the foundation for healthy relationships.
I use trauma-informed interventions to process traumatic experiences and empower the body like TF-CBT, EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Family Systems. I've collaborated with individuals and couples facing developmental trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, mood swings, identity issues, obsessionality, and relationship conflict among others.
Let's collaborate to awaken and nurture your inherent abilities, guiding you towards a more fulfilling life journey.
