About My Clients

Chronic illness and pain are debilitating not only physically but mentally and emotionally. It can be unpredictable, isolating, and anxiety-provoking. This disconnect with your body and the havoc it wreaks on your emotions is natural because your symptoms are very real. But together, we can move beyond the struggle to just get by and build a new relationship to your body. An integrative, mind-body approach will give you the tools to reconnect with your body in a healthy, positive way.

My Background and Approach

I approach therapy with a client-centered framework to let you determine what path your journey is taking. We will create a relationship together where I can be your mirror and reflect your innate wisdom that life's stress and trauma have obscured. Lasting change is created through this empowerment that gives you the strength and awareness to deepen personal resilience. I blend a model of evidence-based therapeutic techniques with non-traditional spiritual knowledge and practices like mindfulness. Through compassion, present-moment focus, and somatic guidance, I offer support unique to what you need for your individual situation. I specialized in working with those with chronic pain, illness, and health concerns, but also have particular attunement to those with trauma and PTSD. I offer an integrative, mind-body approach which utilizes methods like ACT, MBSR, MBCT, and DBT. Together we can tailor an environment of safety and stability where you can start your healing and growth.
