The Counseling Process
We all need a place to feel safe and supported while exploring and processing life experiences. My approach to counseling is compassionate and non-judgmental. I believe each person holds within them the strength and wisdom to heal. I view the relationship between client and counselor as a collaborative opportunity to take healthy risks and lean into discomfort. Through the use of a holistic perspective we will work together to address immediate difficulties while also healing the root causes of distress.
A holistic approach to counseling allows for a deeper understanding of one’s barriers to wellness. I support clients by attending to their whole person considering the impacts of current life stressors, past experiences, environment, lifestyle, and relationships. Clients are encouraged to question deeply held beliefs and challenge rules and patterns that keep them stuck. Through exploration of mind, body, and spirit, innate wisdom can be reawakened, providing an opportunity to uncover one’s sacred path to healing.
I utilize an individualized and trauma informed approach to counseling. My primary treatment modality is EMDR and I incorporate Narrative, Solution-Focused, Somatic, Dialectical and Cognitive Behavioral interventions in the counseling process. I believe it is essential for both the client and counselor to feel the counseling relationship is a good fit and an emphasis is placed mutual connection. I understand making the choice to confront personal difficulties is not easy and would feel honored to work with you.

Practice Areas
I specialize in working with adult individuals within the perinatal time-period who would like to engage in healing perinatal, birth and reproductive trauma. I have supported many clients with miscarriage and pregnancy loss, unplanned cesarean birth, homebirth to hospital transfer and treatment of perinatal mood disorders (anxiety/OCD/PTSD/depression) as well as those struggling with navigating parenthood. I also work with clients who are experiencing perinatal grief and loss, who are preparing for a VBAC and those who are trying to conceive or who are currently pregnant in preparation for birth and with self-advocacy in birthing spaces.
