Approach

I believe in the power of embodiment because I’ve experienced its transformative effects firsthand. From overcoming my own struggles with anxiety to rediscovering joy and purpose, embodiment has been the cornerstone of my personal growth journey. I’m driven by a deep desire to share the tools and insights that have brought me healing and empowerment. Witnessing the profound shifts that my clients experience as they reconnect with their bodies and reclaim their inner strength fuels my passion for this work.

I love working with folks who are seeking to overcome challenges related to spiritual or religious trauma, trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, attachment injuries, disembodiment, stress, and personal growth. I specialize in supporting people through life transitions, helping them navigate their emotions, rediscover their identities, and find balance in their lives.

My trauma-informed holistic approach emphasizes empathy, compassion, embodiment, inner child healing, and attachment theory. I am passionate about creating a safe space for clients to explore their feelings and experiences.

I have training in EMDR, Embodiment, Somatic Work, Psychodrama and Ketamine Assisted Therapy*.

*There is expanding research in the mental health community around the impacts of Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to help eligible patients get unstuck and experience long-lasting improvement in symptoms, particularly those struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, other mental illnesses or those facing a roadblock in their current therapy. Some of the latest studies have shown truly life-changing results for some patients, and I felt compelled to offer KAP to my clients should they want to pursue this avenue of care.
