I have a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental presence that creates a safe space for clients to grow in self-awareness, self-understanding, and self-compassion. My own personal history of trauma, healing, and growth motivates me to help others. I believe that people learn coping strategies and defense mechanisms over time. While these were once helpful for self-protection, they now create barriers to living a life filled with healthy connections.
My goal is to help my clients gain an understanding of the patterns that are holding them back and causing them to think, feel, and behave in ways that don’t feel good. I believe everyone has the capacity to heal and the ability to learn new skills to become free of overwhelming fear, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction.
I practice from an integrated, strength based, client centered approach. I draw from different modalities that are body based as well as cognitive and behavioral.
I would be honored to work with you and look forward to meeting you.

Women are being called to reconnect to their power and their feminine energy which includes their intuition and their collaborative intelligence and ways of knowing. I created this group to bring women together to experience the power of the feminine, to share their stories, and to experience connection through healing rituals, poems, song and meditation. When women heal themselves in a community of other women they can uplift, empower, and inspire others.

The Women's Healing Circle is a 2 hour educational and process group that runs for six consecutive weeks.
