About My Clients

Are you a healthcare professional navigating the physical and emotional effects of cumulative care taking trauma? Are you feeling the weight of being asked to do an impossible job? Are you experiencing increased anxiety and feelings of continual urgency while living in a state of sympathetic activation? Has this led to an exacerbation, episodes and flashbacks of personal trauma outside of nursing? In a space we co-create, you will face the tender parts of your story at a pace that suits you

My Background and Approach

I am licensed to see clients in 38 states (but can only list one) - please inquire for a detailed list. Through a skillful, purposeful results oriented approach I work with your whole self leaving no parts behind. I utilize the following healing modalities – Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Emotional Freedom Technique, Tapping), nervous system regulation tools by way of Polyvagal Theory, self compassion and subconscious healing work. Together in a space that we co-create, we integrate, practice and embody the change your spirit longs for as I support you through the trials, tribulations and triumphs of your transforming self.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that everyone can grow and change - there is no limit to the human capacity. Maybe it’s not about seeking or searching or finding what we you looking for. Maybe it’s about ridding yourself of the lies you have been conditioned to believe and the shame you have carried. The lies of unworthiness that sneak uninvited into your sacred space telling you that you must be more to be enough through the subconscious programming of our limiting beliefs. As founder of the nonprofit, Debriefing the Front Lines we are rooted in mission driven work, heart centered pricing and love as a strategy. We built this commUNITY with you in mind. We actively participate in social justice issues and are an advocate for inclusivity.
