About My Clients

I work with clients seeking a safe space to feel seen, heard, supported, and validated in their experiences; from sharing their strengths, dreams, and passions to exploring their challenges, expressing their feelings, and healing from grief, trauma, loss, and pain. I help individuals healing from attachment wounds, trauma, narcissistic parents, family enmeshment, co-dependency, grief, and chronic pain and illness. I also help people seeking meaning, purpose, and exploring their sexuality.

My Background and Approach

My experience includes working with children, adolescents, college students and adults in inpatient, outpatient, and residential facilities. My approach is relational, humanistic, attachment-based, trauma informed, and family systems oriented. I also use emotion freedom technique (EFT) to help clients ground in their bodies and shift their thoughts.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am a feminist, anti-capitalist, anti-racist, vegan, LGBTQIA+, polyamorous, ethical non-monogamy ally. I have a regular yoga, meditation and spiritual practice and am a certified level two Usui Reiki practitioner. I believe in the body's wisdom and capacity to heal itself with the right supportive nurturing conditions. I aim to provide that healing container for my clients so they can access their inner resources and allow their mind, body, and spirit to heal from life's traumas and difficulties. I believe that if each person is given the guidance to heal their inner child wounds and re-parent themselves this will create a ripple effect of love and tolerance and be the catalyst for a more peaceful planet.
