About My Clients
I love serving adolescent or adult individuals, and couples. I have experience working with those who have experienced traumatic events, are dealing with attachment and relationship difficulties, and those who suffer from complicated grief, anxiety, depression, ptsd, dissociative disorders, and similar diagnoses. I desire to meet you at the core of your need--healing in body, mind, and soul, and reconnection with hope, confidence, and stability.
My Background and Approach
I graduated from Cornerstone University with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. With additional training in Somatic Experiencing, a body-focused trauma counseling approach, I understand the importance of treating the whole person. I believe that beyond a list of symptoms exists a root network of wounds and hurts--from broken relationships and unmet needs for nurture and connection to injustice and inequity, physical dysregulation, and trauma. I also believe that there exists in every person the capacity and bodily intelligence to release the effects of trauma, restore regulation to their mind and body, find connection and healing, and reach new levels of life and wholeness. My goal is to guide clients to access and live into these resources through compassionate, unrushed care--empowering them to rest, integrate their experiences, discover new insights, and restore health, joy, and purpose.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
While I provide counseling to clients of all backgrounds and beliefs, a couple of populations I specialize in working with those within the Latino/a community (I am bilingual English/Spanish), and the Orthodox Christian community.
