About My Clients
I work with individuals and couples who’ve had chaotic experiences, are experiencing pain and/or find themselves ready to heal and move forward. Often, I work with trauma. Trauma shows up in many ways - it could be a feeling a distance from your life, perpetual anxiety, moments of ‘trigger’ where you can’t control your behavior, or coping mechanisms that are hurting more than helping. Trauma informed care means slow, safe, intentional work. We can heal your nervous system, taking it out of fight
My Background and Approach
Every session is tailored to your needs and what’s alive for you. As an integrative therapist, I draw from multiple disciplines to meet you where you’re at. No matter the approach we take, I believe therapy should always be trauma-informed, collaborative and consensual. Parts Work Internal family systems aka ‘parts work’ is an evidence-based modality that involves getting to know different aspects of ourselves. Speaking to and from these parts creates stronger inner relationships and sense of Self. All parts are welcome. Body-Based Insights We may use mindfulness and somatic exploration to tap into the body’s sensations and memories. The body can help bring unconscious material, emotions and visualizations into session and show us a strength-based path toward healing. Exploration of Memories Looking at the past can be painful, but it can also unlock agency and insight. We’ll move through memory at your pace to understand how you became you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Clients have described our work together as "deep", "effective", "relaxed" and "explorative". In session, I strike a balance between active listening and challenging. I’m gentle but not the type to just nod along. I’m a visual thinker, I often bring metaphors and visual representations into session to make insights concrete.
