This is Non-Traditional Therapy > My Clients Often: Discover what’s at the root of their patterns so they can begin to re-pattern new and healthier choices, release expectations, and create a more ideal future - Process and alleviate past relationship trauma - Explore and understand themselves on deeper levels so they are able to more authentically relate to others - Learn the skills to create internal security within themselves - Understand how to create safety and trust in their relationships. We seek to understand trauma through the lens of the nervous system and attachment style to identify patterns of reaction and relating.
I am deeply passionate about helping people build deeper, safer, and more authentic relationships with themselves and with others. I take a relational, holistic, and integrative approach when working with my clients. This means we will create a genuine connection and use a variety of modalities to assist your process of growth for mind, body, and soul.
This is 100% personalized, taking into account what you value, believe, and desire – and empowering you to create change toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I have a wide range of experience and continue to learn more about the human experience through my work and research. To talk with me, send me an email here or visit my website to book a call.

My approach is integrative- pulling from different theories based on individual needs. However, attachment theory and polyvagal theory are applicable to almost every client. I use these theories to help people develop greater security within themselves, healthy relationships with others, and a relationship with their nervous system to better understand themselves and reactions to life experiences.
