About
Whether you are clear about what is troubling you or have something like a vague, insistent sense of not feeling good about your life, I offer a warm, collaborative relationship to explore, heal and grow. You can expect to feel a stronger sense of yourself and better able to tackle the issues at hand. You can expect to feel more responsive, less reactive in your life. I bring in-depth training in emotional trauma, whether from a significant traumatic experience or from developmental trauma, e.g. growing up in a pervasive atmosphere of emotional lack of attunement. I appreciate the power of overwhelming, intolerable experiences and the important work of redescription and emotional holding necessary to emerge fully.
