About My Clients

You've spent most of your life fending for yourself or taking care of others, it feels selfish to imagine putting yourself first. You feel like the odd one out, even in your own family, but deeply want to connect to others and feel accepted. If anxiety, depression, overthinking, self-criticism, or substance use start to feel out of control you need tools to reclaim safety, stability, enhance intimacy, and feel more confident. I'd love to help guide you to a more easeful life.

My Background and Approach

My approach is integrative, collaborative, direct, supportive and non-judgmental. Rather than just talking about your issues, you'll learn how to connect with your feelings and body by building a stronger mind-body connection, have greater self-compassion and gain the deeper insight and awareness necessary for change. You'll learn how to rewire your brain and nervous system from the inside out, as though you’re creating a whole new operating system for life. I offer tangible tools to help you change your thought patterns, behaviors, and limiting beliefs. And we'll laugh and have fun along the way. As a result you'll gain a new outlook on life, more control & empowerment, and greater confidence in yourself to show your authentic self to the world. With over 10 years of experience helping everyone from lifers to lawyers, I've seen and heard it all and helped people at their lowest of lows to create healthier, happier, more resilient, and fulfilled lives. I'd love to help you too!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that at our core we are all good enough, worthy, and capable of growth and healing if we have the right support and systems in place to nurture us. Many of our problems come from not being taught how to navigate our emotions, discomfort, or receiving the amount of nurturing, love, and belonging we all need. Unfortunately, these patterns unconsciously pass from one generation to the next; it’s our job to stop the cycle from continuing by healing the unhealthy and misguided lessons we learned. The good news is that our brains never lose their capacity for change and we can rewrite and rewire the old unhelpful stories into new more empowering narratives and techniques. I come from a culturally sensitive perspective and believe our inherent differences as individuals are what make us unique, strong, and beautiful. My motto in life is to practice compassion and courage in all forms. Finding our way through the storm means we have to be curious, lean in, breathe deep, and let go.
