Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, depressed or disconnected and wanting to make lasting change in your life and relationships? Feel like you have tried everything you know to do? Still nothing seems to work and you just want to feel better. I believe that many symptoms and problems are actually survival strategies that emerge from our need to cope with the hardships of life. These could be depression, shame, perfectionism and fear of rejection to name a few. My passion is helping people identify and understand their survival strategies and create new patterns that improve their lives and connection to self and others.I do my best work supporting people who have histories of childhood and shock trauma, anxiety, eating problems, grief, chronic health issues, perfectionism and codependency. While I may utilize cognitive interventions in my work, I frequently incorporate techniques that are mind-body based, as this may enhance the potential for healing with certain people.I am an IFS trained therapist; with training also in EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and NARM. Faith can be incorporated into your sessions. Seeking support is a brave step. I know this journey is not easy. You don't have to do it alone. I would invite you to do the next thing and reach out to learn more about how therapy can help.
