Great to meet you!

All roads lead to Rome! It doesn't matter where we jump in, if you’re ready, we’ll get there. My POV is through a Neurodiverse lens and incorporates Attachment Theory and C-PTSD with the idea that much of our conflict and distress stems from old wounds & unmet needs that can often be traced back to necessary adaptations needed to survive not only our families of origin but also societal norms and expectations. The gig of being human is hard and de-coding this blueprint can provide a path toward understanding, healing and, fulfillment. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities including Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.

My approach to therapy

I am always on the lookout to uncover the big and little T traumas. If I had a nickel for every client who told me they had no trauma in their history, well, I could buy a lot of over-priced coffees : ) To be clear, trauma is not just surviving assault, or war, or abuse, (though it is absolutely ALL those things), but it is anything, ANYTHING that overwhelms a person's emotional capacity to tolerate it. Equally as important is what resources and support you have. Did you received adequate care when navigating difficult experiences? Who was there to help you manage your pain? Or was the source of your love also the source of your pain? How does that old pain/fear still show up today? And what can we do about it? There are many answers to be found there, and often many more questions. But all along the way, there is healing.

What you can expect from me

I need to know about your family of origin. Which can be a mixed bag. Not for the purposes of blame, but understanding the messages, behaviors and patterns we internalized from those early developmental years is key to understanding why you are who you are, feel what you feel, and do what you do. Think of it as a trailhead that takes you on a path of greater understanding, important insight and ultimately deeper compassion for yourself and others.
