Introduction

Most people looking for therapy have survived several losses and traumatic experiences by the time they reach adulthood. I can help you define what healing looks like for you - maybe you want closer relationships, better boundaries, more motivation, a good night's sleep, pain relief, or feeling more present in your daily life. With clear goals, you will get tools and skills to take with you to be successful outside of the therapy session because that is where your life happens. I am passionate about the LGTBQIA+ community creating healthy boundaries, developing and practicing new loving patterns, and increasing acceptance. My life approach is rooted in the practice of self-compassion, and being kind to yourself is something we will work on. You deserve that, and one goal is for you to believe it, too. I promise to see you, hear you, and that your story is safe with me. We have an incredible healing Infrared Sauna where you can have your sessions with me or use it afterward. I can help you find meaning, ignite your passion for life, and create for yourself a life worth living. I integrate neuroscience, trauma research, and mindfulness practices while incorporating innovative treatment approaches that include Infrared Sauna Therapy and expressive arts. You are worth this step, and I would be honored to be a part of your journey! Come add the benefits of our Infrared Sauna to your therapy session! Select a sauna Program for cellular detoxification, losing weight, reversing the signs of aging, relieving pain, or just relaxing. Having your sessions in the sauna will bring more balance and healing into your stressful life.
