About My Clients

I have a wide range of experience working with clients across the lifespan from working with women around pregnancy and post-partum, as well as, specialized training with end of life issues, and coping with loss. I also consider myself an advocate for the neurodiverse and navigate parenting needs of those with a Pathologically Demanding Avoidant (PDA) child.

My Background and Approach

My style is to help you feel more regulated and centered so that you can connect to yourself and others. I can help you think through difficult situations and be a sounding board to support you to live your Big Beautiful Life! This is a judgement free space for you to bring fears, sadness, and even ambivalence, to develop your wise-mind and cultivate a deep appreciation for what makes you uniquely you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My commitment is to always trust what you tell me. We all need connection to be our best selves. We’ll spend time building skills you can use outside sessions and helping you develop behaviors that align with your values to feel more connected to yourself and others in your life. This is your time and space to learn and grow!
