Introduction

Clients often say that I create a space where they feel free to share anything without fear of judgment. This freedom and acceptance allows us to transform that inner dialogue and enhance your relationship with yourself. Whether you're feeling depressed, anxious, or burnt out, navigating challenging life situations, feeling weighed down by PTSD or other traumas, exploring identity issues, or wanting to get better at managing stress, I can help you find relief and growth. We'll work to decrease the burden of the past and shape a life that reflects what really matters to you. My approach integrates EMDR therapy (a powerful tool for reducing the impact of past experiences) and a variety of evidence-based approaches to create a holistic approach tailored to your unique needs. Together we'll focus on building mindfulness and compassion, healing past hurts, clarifying personal values, and fostering a deeper understanding of yourself. My goal is to help you align with what truly matters to you and feel less burdened by the past and to support you in making meaningful changes in your life. If you're ready to embark on a path of positive change, let's start this journey together. Send me a message or request an appointment above.
