Great to meet you!

Therapy is a "later in life" career for me. I have worked in multiple fields and with people from many backgrounds. Through this I learned that the thread connecting all of us is our desire to be able to respond rather than just react and thrive rather than just survive. What prevents this are the beliefs, experiences, and traumas that often are held in our bodies. It is when we identify and resolve these, we will live and love fully.

My approach to therapy

Therapy is a collaborative process in which we will work together to find the approach that is best for you. I integrate client centered talk therapy with body awareness and mindfulness practices. I have training in several body-centered therapeutic approaches, including but not limited to Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Brainspotting.

What you can expect from me

I provide a warm, caring environment where clients can feel safe knowing that they will be supported, treated with respect, and that their confidentiality will be protected.
