“You hold life like a face, between your palms, a plain face, no charming smile, no violet eyes, and you say, yes, I will take you in, I will love you again.” - Ellen Bass
However it is that you found yourself here, Welcome!
Starting therapy can be a daunting and overwhelming task. I imagine that you have arrived with a reason in mind. Maybe a hard life transition, the loss of a loved one, difficulty navigating an important relationship, or needing some extra support with this wild world we live in. Whatever the reason, I urge you to take a deep breath, and thank yourself for choosing courage, and showing up. Choosing ourselves in the midst of heartache is no easy feat so take a moment to relish in your good body, your wild heart, and your trustworthy gut.
Counseling Approach
My counseling approach is impacted by relational, trauma informed narrative focused therapy that will include some psychodynamic and somatic work. This means that we will explore together the ways that your experiences have influenced the way in which you have come to understand the world, impacting how you perceive yourself and those you love.
