As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with the whole system -- the relationships -- both INTRApersonal and INTERpersonal relationships. I support individuals with their own internal landscape as well as their way of connecting and relating with others. I was trained as a Deaf Educator and can support people with various learning styles and needs. I also work with mindfulness, yoga, breathwork, and Reiki to bring in a holistic approach to mental health.
When you're feeling uneasy or unclear, I help to work alongside you to guide you to clarity. Often, clients say I help them put puzzle pieces into place. My main focus is getting clear on the emotions and feelings coming up and using somatic work to help embody or feel the sensations that connect to certain memories within the body. I also use IFS or "Internal Family Systems" also known as "parts work" to look at the various parts at play within an individual.
The goal is to connect and establish a therapeutic rapport. We discuss your needs and hopes for possible outcomes in therapy. I offer a warm and calm setting and approach with curiosity. We work together to understand and create possible paths for treatment to reach your ultimate goals.
