About
No matter the age, we are wired for connection, expression, and love. I work with children, teens, and adults to create a space where all of these components can flourish and grow within each unique individual. As we work together to find obstacles in the way of one’s ability to connect, to express themselves, and ultimately to love themselves and others, I believe that every client is innately motivated to grow and heal when their emotional and physical needs are met. Both children and adults are wired for growth, yet our pain and/or trauma can keep us feeling scared, ashamed, stuck, or confused on how to move forward with love. I mainly utilize IFS, DBT, and Play Therapy, and am currently undergoing the EMDR certification process. IFS is particularly special to me in my work both as a clinician and client, based on the idea that people are composed of protective and wounded parts of themselves that aim to act in our best interest, yet can become extreme when holding pain. I understand the urge to avoid this pain and protect ourself from harm, & also understand the ways this can hold us back from our own healing. Growth is uncomfortable and at times very difficult. And yet, you can do it! I work with clients of any age to build self-compassion and awareness as we work towards goals. I would be honored to connect with you!
