Your well being is important to me. I am passionate about this work because I am passionte about the healing we all deserve. Uncomfortable emotions sound the alarm to what distresses us and harkens us back to all the feeling memories related to the emotional hurt we feel right now. In therapy, we can get to know your attachment style and the way experience emotional disconnection when it occurs in your relationships today. Emotional connection is so important to our experience of safety in the world, and I want to help you to validate the defenses you learned and earned to help you survive and cope. I work with couples and individuals experiencing emotional distress. I aim to validate your needs to communicate your distress, to make sure that distress matters and is understood. From there we can work on cultivating the compassion and care you have for you and others and help you find the peace and happiness you deserve to survive and thrive. I follow a stepwise process. I objectively notice and intervene where it matters most. Together we collaborate to acknowledge, aim and validate the reasons for protest or withdrawal when that occurs. Therapy is a soothing process and instills a growth mindset. When we slow down to experience your authentic core feelings in session, I work to give you the safety you deserve to make sure a secure attachment connection can happen. I care for individuals, couples and families. I help my clients to develop their own personal map of self-protective relationship reactions that challenge or derail risk taking for authentic connection and self-actualization. As your therapist, I want to be a helper and guide you to know and share your authentic self in the ways you desire. We all need and want nurture, care and protection and when we take care of important feeling moments, life almost magically organically takes care of us.
