I focus on meeting each patient where they are at individually, using evidence-based practices to help each patient gain internal perspective and self awareness. I like to create a space of safety as each patient explores their story; where they came from, what they are doing and where they want to go. I’m an advocate for and encourage my patients to explore their whole self. Symptoms are most often the result of built up stress, trauma and emotional overload. Our bodies tell us our story –learning to listen is our journey.
I am married have two kids and three dogs! I love to read, paint, draw, camp and travel.
