Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist
I established this practice to create an environment that facilitates a sense of freedom, innovation, and acceptance for your uniqueness and process of healing. Transformation and growth is not one-size-fits-all, and so neither should be your therapy experience. You and your experiences are multifaceted. Your emotions, physical body, spiritual connections, purposes, and relationships all make you – you! I believe you are the guide in your healing, and aim to support you in connecting with yourself on a deeper level than you have ever known.
In my 17+ years in this field, I have witnessed many people in life changing experiences that have faced them with their own mortality and purpose. Trauma does that. Loss does that. It makes you question who you are, why you are here, and what impact you have had on those you love or the world around you.
I have sat with the person who survived, the person who lost all that was dear to them, the person with remorse and fear, and the person who still had hope and love. In my office, in a school, in their home, in a hospital, and in a prison – I was by their side, witnessing and supporting their healing journey. I’m ready to be with you through yours.
My approach is holistic, mindful, creative, and solution-oriented, with a focus on death, traumatic loss, and end-of-life experiences. You don’t need me to tell you what to do. You seek to trust and listen to yourself, honoring your experience, your truth, and that of those you love. I’m hear to listen to your stories, support you in facing the fears, and explore paths for navigating all the emotional, social, and relational challenges of trauma and death related experiences.
Areas of focus:
- Death and traumatic loss
- Grief and anticipatory grief
- Trauma and anxiety
- Significant life change
- Diverse spirituality practices and experiences
- Integrative mind-body-spirit approach to healing
