Life can come with challenges that sometimes we don’t have the words for. While using your voice is just one form of communication, movement offers an alternative way to express emotions and thoughts that go with these challenges. I believe that the body is our first home and movement is our first way of sharing what goes on inside of that home. "Dance is a language beyond words, expressing that for which we have no words." -Jennifer De Leon

Now Accepting Weekend Appointments! Heartbreaks can feel unbearable. Wanting to be close with someone, but it doesn’t seem to work can feel devastating. You put forth every effort to love them, only to be met with disappointment as you watch them slowly walk away and abandon you. The worst part isn’t that they’ve broken your heart. It’s the feeling that you’ve broken your own heart… again. Do you feel anxious, depressed, stuck or lonely? Do you struggle with trusting people and/or concerned about their motives? Maybe you've never felt like you belong.

Do you feel "stuck" or find yourself overwhelmed by life's responsibilities? Do you desire to reconnect with your true self? If this is you, then therapy may be a good option to help you gain a deeper understanding of your individual needs, patterns and limiting beliefs while becoming the person you were created to be. It is my belief that everyone holds the power to change, and like a seed that needs favorable conditions to thrive, personal growth must be nurtured and skillfully developed. My goal is to facilitate a trusting, and sometimes challenging but powerful partnership that supports your desire for positive change.

“Something feels off.” If you’ve felt this before, know that you are not alone. Many of my clients come to me with this feeling. I help people of all ages who are going through life transitions. I also see people experiencing anxiety or depression and help them work through buried or minimized traumas. My clients often feel like something is wrong with them or feel like outsiders. They are people who think about the bigger picture in life but may not know how to apply that to their lives.

Are you having trouble adjusting to life transitions? Are you bothered that you aren't good enough? Are you concerned that having emotionally immature parents has caused you to struggle in adulthood? Your experiences with transitions could become overwhelming, causing a lack of focus, a decrease in self-esteem, and second-guessing yourself. Imagine if you could understand why you struggle to make changes or adapt to circumstances you can't avoid. Imagine understanding the impact of a lack of emotional maturity or intimacy.
