When seeking therapy, it is often at a time when you are feeling the most vulnerable and you need help right away. You are looking for a warm skillful therapist who knows how to address the challenges that you are facing. My therapeutic intention is to provide a safe space where you can enhance interiority, map your internal world and learn how to empathically attune to what your body and mind needs. I can guide you how to make positive shifts and behavioral adjustments that align with your personal goals.

In my psychotherapy practice I use current and evidence-based techniques. I am most inspired by the research at the intersection of the neuroscience and psychology fields. Combining AEDP, Somatic Embodiment Practices, Metacognition Techniques, and with a Relational Theory lens, I am trained to help you make the changes that you want to make and to become the person you long to be. We will discuss ways to improve executive functioning skills which are necessary to organize and manage your daily life.

I understand that revisiting vulnerable places may touch on feelings of pain, confusion or even shame. Using body awareness exercises, self-regulation techniques and meta-awareness skills tailored to your specific needs, I can support you in finding effective solutions. You can begin to heal the places inside that are holding you back and reconceptualize old narratives that may be preventing you from achieving your purpose.

Throughout my psychotherapy training in Somatic Psychology at California Institute for Integral Studies, I studied therapeutic approaches that have been proved to help align and create equilibrium within the mind space, develop embodied self-awareness of feelings and emotions and to enliven the spirit. I apply over 20 years of experience in my psychotherapy practice.

Finding the right therapist is essential to having a positive outcome. Together, we will define your goals and create a map so that you can succeed in transforming your life and strive to embrace your fullest potential.

For a New Beginning
In out of the way places of the heart
Where your thoughts never think to wander
This beginning has been quietly forming
Waiting until you were ready to emerge.

For a long time it has watched your desire
Feeling the emptiness grow inside you
Noticing how you willed yourself on
Still unable to leave what you had outgrown.

It watched you play with the seduction of safety
And the grey promises that sameness whispered
Heard the waves of turmoil rise and relent
Wondered would you always live like this.

Then the delight, when your courage kindled,
And out you stepped onto new ground,
Your eyes young again with energy and dream
A path of plenitude opening before you.

Though your destination is not clear
You can trust the promise of this opening;
Unfurl yourself into the grace of beginning
That is one with your life’s desire.

Awaken your spirit to adventure
Hold nothing back, learn to find ease in risk
Soon you will be home in a new rhythm
For your soul senses the world that awaits you.
