Starting therapy is a courageous first step toward making changes in your life. It is often your most courageous self (your self at best) that gets you to take this step.

So often, the hurt or traumatized part of us leads from a place of fear, anger, and sadness. Our personal histories, collective traumas, systems and structures of oppression can work to undermine our best efforts. This can hinder us from living life from an opened hearted and authentic state.

Working together we’ll practice responding to moments of struggle and suffering with grounded compassion and patience. We do this by drawing on your strengths and build on what is already working in your life.

We will envision the life you desire. Engaging in a process working both somatically and in dialogue, we’ll begin to heal the parts that have been hurt and make the changes you seek.
