You are welcome here
I strive to provide a space and a therapeutic relationship in which you can be safe, supported, and honored for who you are… so that you can heal and grow in ways that are meaningful for you
Approach
First and foremost, I am guided by a commitment to social justice.
My approach to counseling is relational, somatic, and grounded in attachment theory. I draw from Internal Family Systems therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), mindful self-compassion, ecotherapy, and other modalities.
My practice is trauma-informed. In my work with clients I apply what is known about how the effects of trauma change both the brain and the body and how therapy can help us heal.
