LMFT, 9 years of experience
New to Grow
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working in the southern california area for almost ten years. I am passionate about the nervous system and how it impacts our everyday lives. I am certified in the Trauma Resiliency Model and am working to be certified in Somatic Experiencing. I believe we learn through experiences and the nervous system is the same.
Our first session with be combination of assessment, and exploring what is impacting you and wht it might look and feel like to be accomplished from therapy.
I am very warm and very experiential. You will get to know your body and learn how to work with it.
I am best to serve humans impacted by the stressors of everyday life and who may be holding onto past experiences that no longer serve them. If you feel stuck or ready to work with your body and not against it then we may be a good fit.
Somatic Experiencing (SE™) is all about working with the stress, shock, and trauma that get stuck in our bodies and nervous systems. SE focuses on how trauma shows up in the nervous system and how that dysregulation spills into our everyday lives. When we get caught in cycles of fight, flight, or freeze, SE helps us release that tension, heal, and build more resilience.
