About My Clients
I work with high achieving women who mask their pain. To the outside world, you are successful and have your shit together. Except you're are a masters at hiding it all. Inside, there's a black hole filled with guilt, shame, and feeling unworthy. There's stress managing family, life, career, relationships, and outrunning failure in pursuit of perfection. Together, we explore the beliefs and patterns impacting your daily life; freeing yourself from the pain shackling you to the past.
My Background and Approach
With 16 years in the field, I've specialized in developing high self esteem, managing stress, exploring emotions, processing trauma and PTSD. We carry trauma in our bodies. The body keeps score. From a young age, we learned self betrayal was pivotal to be worthy of love and to feel good enough. We didn't have a voice. My focus is repairing the damage due to past experiences and how it’s created a critical view to our own self. I utilize talk therapy, EMDR, DBR, Somatic work and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Many of us have the insight and awareness, and still struggle. It’s because we were never taught how to process the emotion that lives in the body. Our bodies carry stories without words. I help you learn to reorganize your nervous system to feel safe in your body. We go at your pace and decide together the best way to approach for you. My desire is to help you navigate this so you can go out and trust yourself to do it independently. My goal is for you to go live life!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe the bravest people I meet in life are the ones I get to work with in therapy. It takes a ton of courage to be vulnerable, share what you feel and trust the process. Most of us come from families and experiences that have made us falsely believe we can’t trust others or ourselves. I create a safe space for you to be seen and heard. I help you discover you are deserving of time and space. You are the main character in therapy. There is no judgement with me. Show up as you are; messy and just as you are. I know what it's like to do the deep healing work and I am here for you. Healing is a journey, not a destination. It's not linear and you are worthy of healing from pain holding you back from a life you desire and to become the most authentic version of you. I am inclusive and support all communities. Emotions, pain and trauma don't discriminate. We all carry hidden wounds. I believe deep compassion is the way to healing self and the world.
