New to Grow
My goal is creating a safe healing space for people to grow and connect to their true selves. I am a curious listener and it is my passion to empathetically and humbly guide you through your healing journey. I offer a space for people to explore the facets of their experiences as well as coping skills so you can connect with what matters most in your life. I have experience with the effects that generational trauma and difficult life adjustments can have on daily life when they are not processed. I have also seen the relief people gain when they are able to safely and collaboratively explore traumatic events.
In our first session I will want to get to know a little more about you such as your living situation, family history and any medical history that may contribute to your issues. I will want to know what your goals are for feeling better and priorities. If we have time we can go into more depth on what you want to work on first.
I take pride in helping you to organize and make sense of the chaos or problems that feel complex. I have a lot of patience and interest in getting to know your story. I try my best to be a supportive "witness" or "coach" through facing difficult feelings and be respectful of what your experienciening. I also will challenge you to grow in ways that are important to you.
I enjoy working with clients who are interested in healing their internal wounds, learning about themselves and open to being vulnerable so they can reach their desired peace. I love working with folks from all walks of life from young adults to the young at heart. My goal is to help you feel at ease and ready to face the pain you've been holding on to.
EMDR
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to process traumatic memories and experiences. It helps us understand the way our trauma as well as our strengths shapes our past, present, and future. It helps move through stuck feelings and memories so we can feel an embodied connection with peace and acceptance.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS (Internal Family Systems) improves relationship with ourselves and helps gain insights to our development patterns of survival in a non-judgemental way.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
DBT gives practical skill building to increase our effectiveness in relationships and how we practice mindfulness.
