Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist Associate
I trust your intuition. You may have landed here because you're feeling something difficult, or not quite sure how you feel. I work with you to connect more to yourself and consequently more to others. I practice a trauma-informed approach that blends Depth-work with Mindfulness, DBT, Attachment theory, Somatic experiencing, & Psychodynamic lenses. I am also trained in EMDR which is used for reprocessing how our brain stores difficult experiences. I do not view symptoms as a pathology, but as information about our needs, our inner world, and our life's meaning. Many of my clients explore how different states of their nervous system are connected to different parts of themselves. Exploring their relationship to intimacy, vulnerability, and conflict often gives them insight in patterns of attachment. We work together to bring to consciousness how you may be self-regulating, and use additional tools. Main areas of focus are grief, post traumatic stress, anxiety, developmental trauma, relational issues, family stress, codependency, enmeshment, dissociative disorders, self-harm, addiction, and depression. My work is to get to know not just you, but all parts of you. Not just who you are, but what you hold. Book a consultation by clicking on "my website"
