Welcome and congratulations: you did it! You stayed present for that pivotal moment when your heart told you the time for change is now. Whether you are struggling with pain, anxiety, grief, depression, rumination, fallout from a trauma or life challenge, or a pattern that no longer serves; change and healing are accessible to you. I invite you to come as you are; I offer a safe, welcoming space for you to share all you may be carrying. I am here to listen and support you in finding and traveling the path forward to growth and thriving.
With clients from many walks of life, I use a humanistic, attachment- and trauma-informed approach that targets difficulties in our relationships with ourselves and others. You and I will collaborate on meaningful goals, and our work together will use insights and techniques from traditions that dive beneath symptoms and address the root causes of suffering.
I'll also draw from my own experiences as a mindfulness practitioner and poet, to integrate holistic, somatic, and creative practices that support both acceptance and intention; building trust, connection, and meaning. I have chosen the powerful symbol of the mandala to represent wholeness and the journey I wish for you: to healing, truth, and integration.
