Since 2018, I have enjoyed working with adults and couples who face emotional challenges including anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and trauma. I have completed a certification in Somatic Trauma Therapy and have also found Internal Family Systems to be helpful for processing painful events, regulating the nervous system, and cultivating a positive relationship with yourself and others.
I have a gentle, authentic, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive approach blended with validation and constructive feedback that ideally allows space for you to safely explore emotions, develop new insights, and feel empowered to create desired change in your life.
It is my hope that you will leave a session feeling a greater sense of relief and grounding, safety and encouragement, and confidence with new skills to improve mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. I offer sincere validation and also strive to provide observations and alternative perspectives if a narrative or pattern is causing distress.
