My priority as a body-centered psychotherapist, is to listen without judgement and work together to create an integrative, trauma sensitive approach to support your healing, growth, and developmental journey. You will receive a variety of tools and resources to help with emotional regulation, coping skills, mindfulness, and practical skills that may help inform you of how to care for your body, mind, spirit and emotional well-being. Our work together may include using movement, awareness of emotions and bodily sensations, and learning about resources that will help integrate what you learn in therapy into your everyday life. I believe we all have blockages; whether in our physical bodies or in our mental state of mind. These blockages can be visceral body pain or show up as triggers, emotional wounds, or ruminating thoughts that are continuously held in the body when not addressed. By exploring, communicating, and connecting to the body and the mind there can be healing. As a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and certified yoga therapist, I believe mental health is intimately interconnected with spiritual, physical, and emotional well-being. As Ralph Waldo Emerson states, "Life is a journey, not a destination." Our journey together will be a source of strength, healing, resilience and connection to yourself!
