In my practice, I focus on assisting individuals in managing trauma, complex PTSD (CPTSD), PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other challenges that affect their quality of life. My approach is grounded in creating a supportive, engaging, and educational environment where transformative change can take place. This includes providing psychoeducation, learning tools, mindfulness exercises, somatic techniques, and meaningful homework outside of sessions to foster safety and engagement.
I have a deep enthusiasm for neuroplasticity and neuroscience, particularly their connection to trauma and healing. Understanding how the brain can change and adapt gives us hope and powerful tools for recovery. For example, through practices like mindfulness and somatic work, we can create new neural pathways that reduce the impact of traumatic memories and improve emotional regulation. By incorporating insights from neuroscience, I help clients understand what happens in their brains and bodies, often bringing a sense of relief and empowerment.
My work involves a combination of therapeutic modalities, including Compassion-Focused Therapy, neuro-somatic methods, nervous system awareness, the Neuro-Affective Relational Model (NARM), and Mindfulness-Based Therapy. These therapies help clients reconnect with themselves, regulate their emotions, and build a stronger sense of internal safety.
I am certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR). Additionally, I have advanced training in somatic and nervous system therapies, including NARM Level 2, which allows me to guide individuals through deeply transformative processes, such as gaining a deeper understanding of their emotional patterns, releasing stored tension, and fostering a sense of safety within themselves.
My aim is to create a neutral and safe space where you can explore your experiences, and I strive to make therapy as dynamic and effective as possible. Whether we are focusing on techniques to help calm the nervous system or exploring past experiences that impact your present, my approach is tailored to fit your needs. My goal is to support you in moving from a place of distress to finding peace, connection, and fulfillment.
If you are looking for a compassionate partner to support your healing, I am here to help you every step of the way. Together, we can work toward a more fulfilling and empowered life, focusing on your strengths and innate capacity for healing.
