About My Clients
My clients are doing everything right - going to work, trying to take care of loved ones and cultivate friendships. Yet, they feel like they aren't doing something right. It just seems like everyone else is doing it better, more easily. My clients recognize that there isn't anything wrong with them - they just don't know how to 'fix things' on their own. They know that to grow they have to reach out for some professional guidance. That is where I come in.
My Background and Approach
I come from a challenging family, with successes as entrepreneur, and a commitment to my own growth and healing. I don't pretend to be the expert in anyone's life but my own - but I do know what it feels like to feel out of place EVERYWHERE. I get how hard it can be to look back at the past and acknowledge its impact on how things might be going in the present. I also know how powerful the right therapist can be in healing the past and growing courageously into the future. I bring this understanding to my work. Utilizing a combination of talk therapies that help us recognize and accept how we got here, along with neurobased therapies to help the brain and body let go of the activation in the nervous system so you can live life fully, with ease and self awareness. I incorporate skills training so you can maintain your sense of wellbeing on your own, long after you finish your work with me. It is never too late to begin living fully.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
We come into the world with a wide-open heart and mind. We have our own unique tolerances for stimulation in the environment we happen to be born into. The people and circumstances around us shape our little nervous system and patterns of reactions, behaviors and beliefs get set up before we get much say in how things are going to go. You had no control over whether you were born in the right body, the right family, the right cultural environment or right socioeconomic situation you needed to grow into your authentic self. Fortunately, the brain and body are resilient and responsive to healing approaches. Working with someone like me who gets that you have a core self that is just waiting to be seen, validated and encouraged, you can grow and heal in ways that may even surprise you. Everyone deserves to live authentically. Let me help you find your way.
