It takes great courage to become the family member who does the work to break the intergenerational trauma patterns. I have personal experience, training, and counseling experience focused on healing intergenerational trauma. You do not have to walk through this alone, I am honored to walk along with you as you process the past and how it influences you. You will explore to find your voice and your story.

Anxiety symptoms often arise from childhood trauma. We develop skills that help us navigate an uncertain and unsafe environment. But these skills require a lot of energy and eventually we realize that we are working really hard to function. It becomes exhausting. Anxiety can keep us from connecting with ourself and our relationships in an authentic way. I specialize in helping people meet their anxious parts with self compassion and we practice techniques to transform those responses.

Anxiety symptoms often arise from protective skills that we developed in childhood to protect us, to help us navigate uncertain experiences. But these skills require a lot of energy and eventually we realize that we are working really hard to function. It becomes exhausting. I specialize in helping people meet their anxious parts with self compassion and we practice techniques to transform those automatic responses.

Personal growth can be exhausting, exhilarating, terrifying, and profound; but it can be easier with me laying a foundation of safety and warning you of the road bumps ahead. My focus is on helping you identify your process of meaning making and to sort through all the voices, internally & externally, that might stand in the way of your growth. Let's use curiosity as the guide in exploring the journey that is your life and where you want to grow.

I specialize in the use of Mindfulness for stress and trauma therapy. My personal knowledge, training, and experiences with clients help me to collaborate with you to find the best ways for you to become aware of and learn from your feelings, thoughts, and sensations in order to feel safe and find internal acceptance.

Maybe you've noticed that when you talk about your childhood people are surprised or shocked by things you thought normal. Or maybe you disregard your experiences because other people had it worse. I offer trauma therapy with a special focus on the developmental trauma that people experience during childhood. My focus is on helping you thrive despite being raised by emotionally immature or unavailable parents.

I previously worked in an intensive outpatient program and have experience working with individuals who live with dissociation in many forms. No matter where you are in your journey of understanding and living with a form of dissociation, I will meet you where you are and offer hope and tools for living a healthy life.

I am EMDR trained. I am always engaged in additional training to learn how to use EMDR with individuals who live with dissociative disorders and complex trauma symptoms.
