Work HistoryAll parts of you are welcomed here! As a conscious licensed therapist, my passion is to support you in connecting with your true Self & inner wisdom. I hold space for you to feel heard, understood, & empowered in creating positive change in your life. I see therapy as a sacred container for self-discovery & growth. Let us embark on this journey together, where you can safely tap into your inner truth & work towards the joy, peace, & fulfillment that lies within you. We may work well together if you are willing to take responsibility of your life & get to the underlying reasons behind your life situations & suffering.
While I work with many therapeutic modalities, I utilize a unique approach incorporating Internal Family Systems, to guide you in meeting, understanding, & validating all parts of you. Yes, even the ones you may despise! It's my hope for my clients to become their own healers & walk away with greater compassion & self-acceptance.
I believe we all have the answers already within us. We may just need a roadmap to getting there. If any of these words resonate with you, then know that you have come to the right place. Please feel free to contact me to schedule an initial appointment to see if we would be a good fit.
