You may be struggling to see and believe in the goodness of yourself and others because of attachment challenges with a caregiver, patterning gifted to you, past experiences or trauma, and current reinforcing experiences. You desire a change in your relationships. I support my clients in finding a compassionate and just relationship with themselves and the world around them by exploring implicit and explicit material in their historical and current narratives. I engage and help clients in an emotionally-focused and somatically-present space. My clients are ready to accept my care, compassion, and do the work together! I practice relationally focused psychodynamic therapy. Polyvagal safety and connection, inner community work, mindfulness, and self-compassion support our work together. I am trained in relational neuroscience exercises for safety and connection, somatic experiencing, and emotion focused therapy. I am committed to lifelong growth, liberation, and learning. You are brave and I am so glad you are here! You have taken the first step, which is often the hardest. I'd love to support you in your journey to trust, connect, heal, grow, and change. I am here for you, I believe in you, I care, and I am looking forward to hearing from you!
