I have been you before. Lonely and overwhelmed, feeling like others couldn’t understand or engage with how deeply I see and experience the world. As a highly sensitive person, I appreciate how meaning, the impact of our experiences and feeling like someone gets us profoundly affect our lives.

Integrating an eclectic mix of therapeutic approaches that help you feel more sturdy and integrated within yourself including Internal Family Systems Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Attachment Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Inner Child work.
