Her clients recognize the negative impact of passing down trauma through generations and seek to lead healthier lives so that the trauma cycle stops with them.

She is certified in the Embodiment Tradition of the Enneagram and has over 150 hours of training and teaching experience. Her approach to counseling is warm, direct, and empowerment centered.

I get what it’s like, I’m a cycle breaker too. It’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about helping others through it. I get the loneliness, the perfectionism, and the constant worry that you’re doing something wrong. I get the difficulty in setting boundaries and the massive self-doubt that can creep in as you pursue what so many in your family didn’t, healing trauma. You can expect a warm, non-judgmental approach when working with me. During our sessions, I listen intently and will ask you questions specifically designed to challenge and support your growth. I will help you dig deep so you can understand the root of what is causing your anxiety and getting in the way of building the kind of life and relationships that you want. This includes tuning into your body and learning to understand what it’s communicating to you. I use somatics and body-based interventions such as vagal toning to help you regulate your nervous system and strengthen your ability to cope with stress. I offer insights and feedback based on your sessions and your goals. I will make suggestions so you can get the most out of your process. What can you expect to gain from therapy? Increased self-confidence, lower anxiety, stronger boundaries, more satisfying and connected relationships, the ability to discern what relationships are healthy for you and which are not, effective communication skills, clarity on what you need to heal, a calmer nervous system, and the ability to trust yourself
