“Sometimes only a calm presence and compassionate listening are necessary.”

Stan Goldberg

My focus:

My approach is centered on our innate potential for change, growth and healing. Together, we will co-create a supportive environment which will help illuminate any areas of pain, destructive patterns, or stuck energy allowing these to be examined and worked through. I am trained in many research-based techniques and offer an integrated, uniquely tailored approach drawing from many therapeutic practices, such as: Person-Centered therapy, Solution Focused, Somatic psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, Internal Inquiry, Completion Process, Regenerating Images in Memory, Psychodynamic therapy, Mindful Self Compassion, humanistic, and intuitive/energy practice. I am also a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, a trained psychedelic assisted therapist, a certified TRE (Trauma Release Exercises) Provider and an EMDR therapist.

The approach we decide to use will be chosen together depending on your unique needs and goals.
