About My Clients

I am passionate about helping people step more into their true essence. I offer support and guidance for adults navigating the mountains and valleys of life by exploring what brings them into a state of aliveness. We explore past traumas and limiting beliefs by inviting all the inner ‘parts’ to come forward and be heard. Through exploring the mental emotional and spiritual world, we work to bring greater awareness to what is holding them back from living their most authentic, fulfilling life.

My Background and Approach

I have a background in holistic nutrition, Hatha Yoga, and Mindfulness which informs my work. My approach is holistic, meaning I weaves together a number of different modalities to effectively address the mind, body, and soul. I bring compassion, authenticity, and curiosity to our sessions. We may work with present moment experience or we may explore the past to find clarity and greater awareness about the roots of your suffering. Whatever avenue we take, my intention is to work creatively and collaboratively with you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Healing is complex and non-linear, which is why I bring patience, acceptance and curiosity to sessions as we traverse these landscapes together. I believe we are always moving towards greater wholeness and we all already hold the wisdom within that is needed for change. Sometimes we just need the presence of a compassionate witness to undertake the journey.
