Are you a woman looking for meaning in your life or having reached the stage of “what now?” Would you like to connect with another who is attuned to your search as a woman? Are you looking for someone with lived experience; someone who is not of any particular religious faith, but who can delve into the deep well of spirit? I would love to work with you on your journey of spiritual transformation. My strengths are in fostering connection, identifying obstacles that keep you from being your authentic self, and learning and practicing techniques and skills that can help to calm, soothe, activate, and create space for change.

Are you struggling with being present? Does it feel like no one else thinks the way you do? Perhaps you’re struggling with your identity or not being seen for the person you are. Are you feeling a crippling weight of expectations for who you “should” be or what you “should” do? Do you find yourself constantly overwhelmed, having difficulty focusing, or overthinking? Do days and months pass with nothing to show for them, nothing changing? As life happens around you, do you find yourself falling into unhelpful or painful patterns? Do you want things to change for the better, to feel hopeful again, but don’t know where to begin.

I work with clients in a relaxed, informal, and professional way to promote emotional safety and comfort within the relationship so that they can process openly and authentically about meaningful and often sensitive topics. While experiencing this connection, people are able to gain presence, reflect on experiences and plan for personal maintenance, change and growth. Many clients enjoy both spending time in the office, taking walks, spending time in nature, and/or meeting virtually for telehealth sessions. I like to utilize physical activity, mindfulness, and ecotherapy for engagement and emphasizing overall health and wellness.

Are you an ambitious BIPOC but fear you won’t have the energy levels or emotional stability to maintain your goals? Do you struggle with needing things to be perfect, doubt your abilities, stress, struggle to focus, or feel down on yourself? Feeling like a burden all the time & hiding parts of yourself makes you feel stuck. Time management is off and your once helpful routines are a distant memory. And still, you're doing the things you need to, but feeling exhausted, alone, & overworked is not sustainable. You know there's a better way to move through the world and you're ready to feel lighter, organized, supported, & sustainable.

I have over 15 years of experience working for trauma-informed treatment/enrichment programs. In my practice, I focus on supporting people through trauma and what is occurring inside themselves as a result of adversity. We shift cycles of perfection, hyper-performance, and survival-based rigidity in favor of more grounded states where we follow our intuition and inner healing wisdom. I specialize in finding the crux of the pain and offering gentle compassion and permission- based techniques to sooth the roots of grief so that you can be heard, your system can be cleansed, and your being able to receive compassionate care.

If you’ve found your way to this site (and let’s be real…if you’re a human being), I know life has handed you or your child many stressors and challenges and you/ they are likely experiencing strong or even overwhelming emotions - perhaps anxiety, sadness, outbursts or numbing, low self-worth. I believe many of our common difficulties stem from experiences of disconnection - with ourselves, others, and the natural world - and that what most of us are seeking is a path toward belonging, joy, a sense of calm, and meaning. These gifts of life grow when we begin connecting, inward & outward, and immerse ourselves in the world around us.

In a society where we are judged for our looks, our bodies, our successes, our failures, our parenting, our partnering, and so much more, it's no wonder that low self-esteem, low self confidence, anxiety and depression are prolific. I believe these are significant underlying issues to many challenges in a woman's life and often contribute to self medicating; which can lead to addiction, trauma, and low self worth. The good news is you can absolutely heal! Discover your sense of self worth, learn to accept yourself along with all of your gifts and complexities, and improve your relationships. It truly starts with YOU. I can help!

If you're reading this and you can relate, I see you. You need to find a therapist who can help you to dig deep enough to identify these patterns and change the old narratives. Some of these patterns MAY include:

Are you changing jobs and don't know what you want to do? Maybe you're an "empty-nest" parent, newly divorced, or recently retired and wondering, "Now what?" Maybe you are all or none of the above, but find yourself in the midst of change. My area of interest is life transitions. I support clients from diverse backgrounds and ages as they identify new tools that support their growth through various life changes. These transitions can lead us to question our values, identities, and the meanings we make for ourselves, and can impact our sense of self throughout our lives, for children, and young-, mid-life, and older adults.

Do you find yourself going through an uncomfortable period of change? Or maybe you’re facing a need for change and feeling overwhelmed by it. Either way, you may be dealing with stress, grief, isolation, or addiction. Additional factors like discrimination burden, caregiving roles, and financial difficulty may make change seem impossible. It can feel safer to live with dissatisfaction than to risk losing the comfort of routine, but avoidance can allow unhappiness to snowball. This can happen at any age. Humans grow and change throughout our lives, which requires maintenance, flexibility, and willingness to tune in to our needs.
