I am a mother, grandmother, and therapist whose work is shaped by both clinical training and lived experience. My approach is grounded in the belief that developing a meaningful and intentional relationship with ourselves is essential to creating lasting change in our lives and relationships.
My work is for women and couples who are seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. You may recognize recurring patterns in your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, or relationships, or you may simply feel that something in your life is not working the way you would like it to. What I am offering is deep reflective work that invites us to look beyond the surface of our experiences, discover patterns we may not yet recognize, and explore the parts of ourselves that have been hidden, rejected, or misunderstood.
My approach is based primarily on exploring internally using a self discipline oriented practice that emerged out of my clinical work over the years. Somatic Shadow Integration (SSI), is an integrative clinical framework informed by Jungian shadow concepts, somatic awareness, and relational understanding. Through this work, we explore how our emotional reactions, internal conflicts, and bodily experiences can reveal patterns that influence the way we move through life and connect with others.
Rather than focusing only on managing symptoms or changing behaviors, we work toward understanding what is happening beneath them. This process encourages curiosity, personal empowerment through accountability, and compassion as we learn to recognize our patterns, understand their origins, and develop new ways of responding.
Life transitions, relationships, grief, and trauma often bring these patterns into greater awareness. They can become opportunities to examine long-held beliefs, reconnect with neglected aspects of ourselves, and make intentional changes that support greater emotional balance and healthier relationships.
My goal is to provide a grounded, supportive therapeutic relationship for women who are ready to engage in meaningful self-exploration. Together, we work toward developing a stronger relationship with the whole self, one that supports greater acceptance, personal agency, and a sense of peace within ourselves and our relationships.
My work draws from several established therapeutic perspectives, including Jungian psychology and shadow work, attachment theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed parts work, and somatic approaches. These perspectives inform my understanding of how our internal experiences, emotional patterns, and relationships shape one another. Together, they provide a foundation for the deeper self-exploration central to my work.
I offer online therapy in a private, consistent, and supportive setting.
