About

Most people who seek counseling do so because something in their life is not quite right. Maybe you have already identified what is off in your life – depression, anxiety, a toxic relationship, a past trauma, a painful life transition. Maybe you are the family member or friend that people generally rely on; you give to others freely but sometimes feel as though you are running on “low” and have few places or people to turn to for your own needs. Maybe you're a parent who is seeing your own childhood trauma reappear. Or perhaps you just know that something is off, that you could be happier or more fulfilled than you are currently. I utilize somatic approaches such as EMDR, IFS, and ego state work to address trauma, low self esteem, anxiety, and difficulty navigating intimate relationships. Together, we can gain familiarity and knowingness of your inner process, build compassion, and then discern paths forward to bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.
