Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
How many times have you asked yourself, "Why do I do that?" Maybe it has come with curiosity, "Where did that come from?" or maybe it has come with the all too familiar shame and judgement, "What's wrong with me?" For many reasons, it can be hard to connect to our own inner wisdom, creativity, and power, to help find answers to these questions. Life is challenging and you may be fighting battles internally and externally against oppressive or unfair systems. You may never have been given the skills or supports needed to navigate life in the ways you want to. This is not your fault. Answers AND solutions AND compassion are available! View 5 Photos I utilize a variety of trauma-informed therapies, including Somatic Experiencing, parts work, psychodynamic, EMDR, and expressive therapies to support in understanding, processing, and building the necessary skills to navigate the world in a different way that is filled with curiosity, kindness, strength, power, and most importantly, agency. My approach is insight driven, combined with powerful interventions to release trauma, pain, and unhelpful patterns or behaviors that might be stuck in your body. I strongly believe that with insight, increases choice; with choice, increases power; and with power, increases agency. I additionally provide Telehealth services in OH, TX, ID, VA, OR, WA, and NM.
