Maybe you have coping skills and an understanding of ‘why’ you struggle, and yet something still feels stuck.
My work is grounded in the belief that you and your experiences make sense, even if it doesn’t always feel that way.
Rather than trying to get rid of thoughts, emotions, or behaviors by force, we're interested in the role they've been playing for you. This helps you move from feeling in battle with yourself to being on the same team. Working with your nervous system rather than against it creates the conditions for deeper, more lasting change.
I work with adults navigating a range of concerns, with specialized training in complex PTSD and late-identified autism/ADHD.
Every session we start where you are, trusting that there's a reason for whatever is coming up. Your experiences may not fit neatly into boxes, and you don't have to come in with everything organized and figured out. Tangled knots and complexity are welcome.
