About My Clients

I support those exhausted by "performing" wellness—individuals managing complex trauma, neurodivergent unmasking, or chronic illness. My clients often feel they must "fix" themselves like a project or manage others' emergencies at their own expense. I offer a sanctuary for high-achievers and caretakers who are ready to stop striving, disentangle their self-worth from productivity, and reclaim their energy for a life that feels restorative rather than depleting.

My Background and Approach

My approach moves beyond traditional "talk therapy" to prioritize your body’s wisdom and nervous system capacity. At Fig Tree Services, I provide a somatic-first, low-demand environment where you are never expected to "perform" wellness or arrive with a rigid agenda; we move at the speed of safety, not an arbitrary clinical goal. I utilize "parts work" (Internal Family Systems - IFS) to meet difficult emotions with curiosity rather than criticism, helping you move from internal war to unity. By integrating somatic anchors and bilateral stimulation, we help you shift from reactive, cognitive loops into a state of embodied groundedness. This is a relational partnership rooted in Radical Autonomy, where you are empowered to trust your own instincts, reclaim your agency, and define your own path to healing without the interference of third-party insurance mandates.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe therapy should be a human-to-human partnership where your worth is independent of your output or ability to "fix" yourself. I view slowing down as a radical act of self-care and prioritize your need for rest and presence over standardized clinical quotas. For those desiring spiritual integration, I believe faith should be an anchor of comfort rather than a source of performance-based guilt. We work to transform abstract beliefs into a visceral sense of being "held," ensuring your spiritual life supports your nervous system. I also believe in normalizing "perpetual problems"; conflict is not a failure, but an invitation to build authentic intimacy and find freedom in your own responses. Ultimately, I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to act as a compassionate guide as you build a life that is authentic, sustainable, and entirely your own.
