Hello! It is truly a pleasure to have the possibility of working with you. Anxiety, trauma, and depression can make us feel lost and the road through is muddy and overwhelming. This is why having a guide that can understand you and meet you where you are, is incredibly important.
Through being trained in many different modalities including art therapy and EMDR I have learned that every person needs to approach problems in a way unique to them.
It is my goal to help you navigate this voyage as well as hold and work through complex emotions as they fight with each other while at the same time cohabitating in the same space. I look forward to taking those first steps with you and take this journey together.

Strengths

I am also able to be very adaptable to situations and use a variety of different techniques to be able to bring to light obstacles that may be holding somebody back.
