About My Clients

The areas for me that are really special are working with those that experienced complex/relational/developmental trauma and grief and loss. Many times, people are feeling "stuck" and often in places of continued suffering. I enjoy exploring with my clients what is getting in the way of what they are most wanting for themselves and their lives in a depth oriented, compassionate journey of understanding themselves.

My Background and Approach

I enjoy working with clients in a curious, heartfelt space where we get to understand how clients have organized or adapted in ways that at times were so beneficial but now may be getting in way of what they want most for themselves. Many times these adaptations come at the expense of self confidence, self esteem, sense of self and even connection to self. In this space, we will compassionately venture to understand these adaptations while connecting back to our authentic self, heart and aliveness.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have and always will believe that as humans we have a natural drive towards healing and heart. I believe we are wired for connecting to others and we need our village. I do not believe this journey of life is supposed to be on an island. I believe in this world it often times can be difficult to show up with our hearts or our authentic selves and yet we deserve the right to. I know I am on a continuous journey of understanding and connecting to my own sense of self, internal freedom, more breath and more peace and look forward to supporting others on their own journey.
