What I have learned from my own journey and from sitting with those who enter my office and share their stories of struggle, loss, disappointment, fear, betrayal and guilt, is that the life force is strong. I have over 25 years of experience working with relationship issues, trauma, anxiety, self esteem, self care, loss, and eating disorders. My clients and I together create an environment that honors their own experience and wisdom. Therapy can provide not only the understanding that supports change, but the tools to prepare you to live with more confidence, strength and compassion. I am grounded in a belief that what is most important is a vibrant connection with your own unique spirit. This leads towards informed self care and healthy relationships. When that connection to the inner self is weakened, the results are anxiety, depression, difficult relationships, eating disorders and other addictions. As a spiritually sensitive psychotherapist, I approach this process of healing and growth as sacred work, and approach each person as someone to be deeply respected. I pay gentle attention to the interdependence between body, mind, brain, spirit and relationship - and support and encourage my clients in doing the same.
