Whether you feel you have no idea where to start, pooling at an in-between place, or need a supportive boost to get back on track in your life, I offer a holistic approach to therapy. To let the ups and downs be witnessed and heard is a profound experience. To receive the care you need is to let go of the belief that doing it alone is the only way. We will work with the contained emotions of transition, grief, relationships, or trauma, allowing wholeness and self-compassion to emerge. “Wisdom tells me I am nothing. Love tells me I am everything. And between the two my life flows.” ― Nisargadatta Maharaj
An integrative somatic, trauma-informed approach to meet your specific needs. Reconnect with a meaningful life, explore self-compassion, improve distress tolerance, and regain a sense of self-embodiment through research-based modalities.
As a holistic mental health counselor, my desire is to accompany you in the therapeutic process by offering an environment that allows you to be yourself in a curious, judgment-free environment. It’s a courageous journey to begin counseling, and I am committed to providing an experience that offers personal agency or choice and instills hope.
