Therapy style
From understanding symptoms and learning coping tools to processing trauma and gaining insight, sessions are focused on supporting you and your goals and getting relief from symptoms. I create a space where people can pause from the whirlwind of life and start to look within. Symptoms are one way the body communicates with us. Your arrival here likely indicates that you have already taken the first step in healing: you're listening to your body. I offer a variety of evidence-based practices and time-tested modalities to support the healing process.
