I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), but you might also call me a healing guide or hope restorer. I help women & non-binary individuals who are seeking healing and whole hearted living through reconnecting their mind, body, and soul. Maybe they feel stuck by shame or the impact of trauma on their lives. Maybe they are having a time managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or significant life transitions. Maybe they have started engaging in unhelpful coping skills- like substance use, toxic relationships or critical self talk. I can support YOU in living a mindful and empowered life through reconnecting with your mind, body, and soul. My approach helps you live in a way that allows you to choose to thrive in the midst of past or present trauma. I use the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) & Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) to help individuals understand the biology of traumatic stress reactions and learn specific skills to return the body, mind and spirit back to balance. Our bodies, minds and spirits are so very resilient, flexible and designed for change and growth. I have extentensive training and experience in trauma counseling and have worked with domestic violence survivors, human trafficking survivors, complex trauma and PTSD. I am basic trained in PMADS (perinatal mood and anxiety disorders) as well as a member of the Postpartum Health Alliance (PHA) in San Diego! I am eager to help new moms and long time moms manage fatigue, stress, overwhelm, burnout, relationship issues, and identity issues. I am also passionate about helping moms process birth trauma using EMDR.  I know from my own journey towards wholeness that healing is not linear and that it happens one sacred moment at a time. I believe that courageous and vulnerable people will change the world. That’s why I hope you will join me in cultivating resilience, self-compassion, and healing by scheduling a session today.
