I guide clients on working with their autonomic nervous system, which is the base of our self-healing mechanism, rather than going against it. We would do embodying & mindfulness practices as well as talk therapy to bring about the life you hope for.
I want to start by understanding your challenges, goals, and what is most important to YOU to gain from therapy. We will then work together to identify personalized coping strategies, implement behavioral changes, and heal from past experiences.

I approach treatment from a holistic, mind-body perspective.
Together, we will explore patterns in your relationships, and work to establish relationships that are healthy, and meaningful. We will also explore unhealthy patterns keeping you stuck, and work to heal and resolve these issues.

My approach is highly relational. When working with me you can expect to feel nurtured, validated, and heard. Deeply rooted patterns of behavior may also emerge. At this time I collaborate with you to develop coping resources, and healthy boundaries.
At the onset we look at the client(s) goals and create a plan that will likely accomplish those goals. In couple therapy I emphasize acceptance and change together usually through establishing strong emotional connections.
