Feeling disconnected? Stuck? Anxious? Overwhelmed? Angry? Depressed? Alone?

It takes courage to seek help and support. It is a journey. Using a Polyvagal approach (exploring and regulating your autonomic nervous system and states), informed by somatic and mindful strength-based practices, together we will develop strategies to recognize what contributes to stress and access resources to help overcome.

I am passionate about utilizing an integrated approach and our nervous system to help people move toward increased mental health and overall wellness. I am here to hold space for you, not to judge or give advice, but to provide a safe environment to hear you, to guide you to reflect, to help you process, uncover, discover, and heal.

Neuroscience is making a profound contribution to our understanding of how we function as human beings. Accessing our nervous system enables us to resource how we are wired to build awareness and regulate. We can then expand our tolerance toward discomfort, negative influences, and trauma and find coping strategies to decrease anxiety, depression, stress and tension. My hope is that we can collaborate together to identify your strength and resources, to help you connect with yourself, others, and the world around you.

I have over 30 years of relational leadership experience and influence. I come from a place of curiosity and am client-centered, with a deep understanding of interpersonal relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, trauma, grief, and loss. I believe we are wired for connection: connection with others, our surroundings, and ourselves. Using a strength-based approach and experiential therapy, together we can create new patterns, find agents for change, and overcome a limited sense of self. Empathetic understanding can offer connection, perspective and hope.

I am a wife, mom, daughter, friend and advocate in the community. I love being in nature and all things outdoors – hiking, biking, camping, skiing… I love to connect with friends on a walk or over a good cup of coffee with a scone.
