You want to feel like yourself again.
You don’t know how or when it happened but it feels like you’ve lost yourself. What used to make you happy doesn't anymore, you wake up every day with a tightness in your chest & you feel disconnected from the people in your life.
Maybe every interaction is bringing on your anxiety lately? Or your friends/family haven’t been as present as you’d like them to be? Maybe your mood is starting to impact your focus on school/work? You’re exhausted and just want to feel like “you” again.
What’s it like to work with me?
My approach is focused on you! I offer a genuine and caring space where you’re the expert of your lived experiences. I enjoy working with millennials and gen z adults and have a special interest in working with those who are open to exploring and unravelling the layers of being human.
My work is centered around empowering my clients! Especially those who struggle with anxiety, relationships, and stress with a focus on healing past experiences that may be impacting your present and are getting in your way of living life to the fullest. I utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy to help the brain naturally move towards healing.
We’ll also have productive conversations that assist you in developing new skills and new ways of responding to your world. We’ll also take some time to tune into your internal state and work on strengthening your connection with your nervous system. I value comfort during our sessions, and I invite you to take advantage of the virtual space and to come as you are, even in your sweatpants!
I get that life can be overwhelming.
Between all of our adulting responsibilities and pressures, it’s not surprising we might look like we’re thriving on the outside but are secretly just surviving. You’re not alone.
Our work together will help you discover what in your world is holding you back and how to shift into a new gear of self-love, confidence and a revived sense of connection to yourself and others. I’m passionate about helping clients process their past, shift into their present and reach for their future dreams.
A little more personal.
When not in session, you can find me chasing the sunshine with my partner, walking my two lovely pups and cooking up a storm for friends and family. I love trying new recipes and discovering new techniques in the kitchen. I’m currently challenging myself in Mexican cuisine and am working on perfecting a jackfruit spicy taco!
