Perhaps you - or you and your partner - are standing on a threshold, a doorway between the life you have known and the life ahead of you. You may feel disconnected from yourself, from what used to give your life meaning, from that spark that used to enliven your relationship. You are walking in the dark, overwhelmed by the unknown, maybe feeling depressed or anxious, or both. I am here to sit with you in that scary, and sometimes exciting space, to help you be attentive to your deepest needs, fears, and longings, to communicate clearly and gently, and to uncover the deep well of wisdom and love that lies within and between you. It would be my honor to: Sit with you in your questions; Stay with you as you journey into your pain; Hold space for you as you break open your wounds and listen for their gifts; Accept all of you as you learn to love your self; Support you as you find your voice and write a more life-giving story; Cheer you on as you discover a transformative way forward. I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. I view individuals as embedded in relationships - impacted by generational patterns, attachment experiences, culture, and unjust systems. I offer support to cope with intense emotions and a brave space for the deeper work of healing from past wounds and traumas.
