“For here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead.”
-Thomas Jefferson
My ideal client is someone who can relate to the following questions: Has difficulty accepting other people or their choices? Feels anxious, stressed, empty, or burnt out most of the time? Tends to overcommit themselves and has trouble saying no even when they want to? Loves people SO much, that it’s sometimes perceived as controlling, manipulative or smothering? Tends to over function in relationships.
To address the pain associated with these issues, I use Internal Family Systems (parts work), Somatic/Attachment Focused-EMDR (trauma reprocessing), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (mindful coping skills), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (thought work), Person-Centered Theory (respect of your process), & Polyvagal Theory (nervous system science). I am also an avid reader and recommend many books to my clients. I work best with clients who enjoy a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
Wherever you are in your journey, I can help you learn to balance the love you devote to others, with the love you will learn to give to yourself via boundaries, education, and self-compassion.
I feel passionate and inspired to help disconnected individuals reconnect to themselves and their personal journey. I guide and empower my clients to know all of themselves well. With grace and compassion, I help clients walk into their dark places, so those places aren’t so scary anymore. I can help you return to you.
