A Heart-Centered Approach

Warmest welcome to my website!

Finding the right therapist for you can be an adventure in itself! I hope to make that journey easier by highlighting my approach and the areas I specialize in.

I am a psychotherapist, dream specialist, author, and speaker. I offer a heart-centered approach to therapy, guiding you to remember your inner connection, embrace your true, authentic Self, and cultivate space for love, joy, and inspiration.

I specialize in helping clients who are experiencing anxiety, feel disconnected from their true paths, and no longer feel like themselves.

I help individuals who may be navigating anxiety, life transitions, low self-worth, grief, depression, traumatic experiences, and low creativity.

I draw inspiration from the depth of psychodynamic therapy, the peaceful presence of humanistic traditions, the soft healing of EMDR, and the quiet calm of mindfulness. I create a warm and calm space where you are met with unconditional positive regard, compassion, and nonjudgment.

I also embrace dreams – inviting you to cultivate a deeper connection with your dreams and inner wisdom. Your dreams offer deep insight into limiting beliefs and unconscious programming.

Our sessions may include:

Embracing limiting beliefs and unconscious programming that may be hindering you from blossoming into your true self
Exploring underlying anxieties
Reframing negative thinking to more positive and productive thinking
Listening to your feelings with somatic awareness
Exploring your dreams for improved self-awareness, graceful guidance, and inner connection
Adaptive reprocessing of trauma and charged memories and fears
Self-compassion practices
Practices for remembering your self-worth
Deep reflections and illuminating insights
Meditation and breathing exercises
Heart-centered communication practices for healthy relationships
Loving reflections around faith and spirituality
Visualizations, prayers, and affirmations

I invite you to build a practice of re-centering yourself, as you connect deeper on your path of authentic and heart-centered living.
