• The light of love is always in us, no matter how cold the flame. It is always present, waiting for the spark to ignite, waiting for the heart to awaken.

  • There is a dance only you can do, that exists only in you, here and now, always changing, always true. Are you willing to listen with fascination? If you are, it will deliver you unto the self you have always dreamed you could be. This is a promise.

    Gabrielle Roth

  • My dream is that people will find a way back home, into their bodies, to connect with the earth, to connect with each other…to connect with the broken…to connect with people calling out all around us, to connect with the beauty, poetry, the wildness.

  • Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within.

    Dr. Gabor Maté

  • Sometimes a breakdown can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a trauma that prepares you for a future of radical transformation.

Welcome to my counseling practice.

I’m here to create a compassionate atmosphere where you can experience deep level mental, emotional & spiritual healing. 

My Services

 

Somatic Psychotherapy

I hold a Somatic therapy framework and utilize present moment body-based awareness as a central tool in your healing process. I empower clients to become curious about themselves and orient towards an authentic embodied way of living.

Attachment Informed Psychotherapy

Attachment informed therapy acknowledges that our earliest experiences of relationship inform how we relate to ourselves & to others in the present. I support you to uncover what your love blueprint has been, and learn a new intentional way of being in the world.

Trauma Treatment

Trauma Treatment is designed to help you resolve painful symptoms and heal from life’s challenging events. I specialize in Somatic Experiencing®, a powerful somatic psychotherapy modality that supports your body to release and heal traumatic shock.

You have a birthright
to feel whole & fulfilled.

You were born with value, purpose and the intelligence to heal already inside of you.

I hold the lens that there is nothing wrong with you that requires fixing, just parts of yourself that need a compassionate witness and a welcome home back to your body. The painful symptoms that may bring you to counseling - confusion, anxiety, insecurity, depression, relational conflict, chronic illness, addiction - are all information that there are important needs inside of you that have been waiting for your attention.

The good news is: your brain is wired for connection and integration. With the support of a skilled psychotherapist it’s possible to develop a sense of internal choice and learn new creative ways to relate to yourself and others with confidence.

My hope is to create a path for you to live a radically authentic and meaningful life.
