About My Clients
Maybe you’ve spent so long putting everyone else first that you’ve lost touch with what you want or need. Asking for those things, should you figure them out? That's another thing entirely! As a recovered people pleaser myself, I know ALL about it. Codependency, anxiety, guilt, and some amount of unresolved trauma is my wheelhouse - and recovery is completely possible.
My Background and Approach
First and foremost: I am a human to you first, and professional second. On the professional front: I blend Somatic Experiencing® with Internal Family Systems (IFS) and other forms of talk therapy that align with my belief that deeper listening is what you need to heal - NOT yet another person telling you how to think or who to be. The work I do is about recovering your true self, and that can only be done by guiding you back inside. Your psyche has its reasonings that want to be heard, and your body also has a voice. My approach is to help you gently lean into what's happening within, so you can understand yourself more -- and ultimately find freedom from what's been holding you back.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As Marianne Williamson says, "Our playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you ... and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same." This is why I became a therapist: when we allow for genuine healing, our true, expansive selves can emerge -- and that ripples out. Do you have questions, or want to get to know me? Set up that free consultation! I love my job immensely (it's ridiculous) and would be so happy to connect.
