I specialize in treating trauma and relationship concerns. I support individuals with attachment trauma or painful past experiences that continue to impact their current lives, getting in the way of feeling grounded, connected, and vibrant. I also support couples, relationship partners, and adult family members to engage more effectively, sustainably, and lovingly with each other. I engage with clients as whole people and explore their concerns in the context of identities and experiences that matter to them. With that in mind, I invite them to build awareness and skills that will help them thrive rather than tread water. I draw from a number of approaches to help my clients reach their goals including mindfulness, attachment theory, cognitive behavioral elements, feminist theory, social justice, and a holistic strengths-based perspective. Ultimately, my approach is tailored to meet the needs of each client, and I work with each client to identify what would be most helpful. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to commit to their healing and growth, in a space that is collaborative and supportive. Please contact me to learn more about my approach and how I may be helpful to you. You will find more information about my approach and my practice at my website belaluzhealth.com.
