Therapy to support the interconnection between the mind, body, and soul
I am passionate about guiding women like you towards a more intentional and meaningful life by:
My perspective is that mental, emotional, and interpersonal challenges not only affect the mind but are held within the body. In addition to traditional talk therapy, we have the option to weave in practices to support your nervous system such as EMDR, Somatic Experiencing™, and Walk and Talk therapy as we work together. Getting in touch with the mind-body connection in therapy paves the way to restoring a sense of safety and presence in your relationship with yourself, loved ones, and your environment.
I focus on caring for you as a whole person.
Holistic Therapy
First of all, finding the courage to take this initial step and seek support is difficult and shows your resilience. I’m excited to walk alongside you.
When the difficulties of life overwhelm and disconnect us from ourselves and the important people in our life, it is a natural response to reach out for support. I believe an authentic relationship is vital to healing and rebuilding. So, you can expect me to show up as a human first with my therapeutic expertise woven into the safe connection we build together.
With kindness, honesty, and a little humor, I am here to meet you wherever you are on your path. I care deeply about providing you with gentle guidance and a nurturing environment to slowly release some of the pressure you may be carrying. I look forward to guiding you in this inner work to experience yourself whole, rooted, and present in your life.
Lover of walks with friends, pilates, renovating old furniture, and chatting at local coffee shops.
