Welcome. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and am licensed in the state of California. I am originally from Iceland but have lived and studied in the U.S. for years. I work primarily with trauma and cult survivors who are ready to move beyond survival mode. Many of my clients struggle with hypervigilance, anxiety, identity confusion, or lingering shame after coercive or abusive experiences.
I integrate trauma informed, somatic awareness, relational repair, and insight-oriented processing, balancing reflective space with directive support when needed. EMDR therapy will soon be available to further support trauma reprocessing and recovery.
I have had success in assisting clients to identify the root cause of their challenges as well as creating plans that lead to measurable progress. I also can help clients come to terms with that changes do not happen overnight and progress comes with dedication, which I believe we all can find within ourselves, little by little. I also believe I can learn from the client and their word matters. Clients are the experts in their life's journey.
