About Me

I am motivated, as we are all motivated, by a desire to connect with others and ourselves in honoring ways. Unfortunately, in our upbringing, we often learn "rules" for connection that are no longer working in our best interest within friendships, family relations, and romantic relations. I use an attachment-oriented, trauma-informed, integrative approach with all my clients. I hope to support all of my clients in their journey towards earned-secure attachment. We'll begin by gently exploring your strengths and the natural resources you already have working for you in your day-to-day life and key relationships. We'll then discover and practice additional tools to help you maintain a present sense of groundedness as we approach more difficult work. From there, we'll explore deeper roots to bring healing towards the relational wounds that continue to plague your interactions with self and others currently. Finally, we'll consider future experiences that would likely call for old habits to return, ensuring that you will have access to these new resources practiced in therapy for when those experiences do occur. We'll go through this process in your timing, together with curiosity and tenderness. In each step we'll revisit the beautiful resources you have, deepening your sense of embodied safety within yourself and in your healthy relationships.
