You’re not sure when it happened, but you don’t recognize the person you see in the mirror. As far as everyone else can tell, you’ve got a great life. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and the voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short, or of events from the past pulling your focus away from the here and now. You spend your time and energy trying to keep it all together and giving your time to everyone but yourself. You feel exhausted and you know something needs to change. And you know the time is now!

My approach to counseling is to be fully present, attune, and resonate with my clients by co-regulating their nervous systems in a therapeutic setting. I am trained to identify and treat the root causes of emotional triggers and associated thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors. I believe mental wellness is characterized by calmness, clarity, curiosity, creativity, confidence, courage, compassion, and connectedness. Intuitive and compassionate, I find peace not by knowing things but in my journey to be known. I am trained in the latest empirical treatment approaches, such as EMDR, IFS and CFT.
