Our current expression of self is often shaped by a mixture of our early positive or negative experiences, attachments or lack thereof, biology, and environmental circumstance. As adaptive beings we develop ways of coping, patterns of emotionality, behavior, and strategies of relating to ourselves and other. Sometimes these ways of being are not working anymore.Luckily, there resides in all life a wisdom of self-healing. My role as a counselor is to provide a space for re-discovering and empowering that wisdom. Recent research has discovered that the nervous system can rewire itself through positive relational experience. During our time together we practice somatic (mind/body connection), mindfulness and attachment (relational) oriented techniques, that over time facilitate the rewiring of the nervous system. Through this kind of therapeutic work one experiences more satisfying relationships and a general experience of living from a more Authentic Self. Are you someone who would identify as an empath, maybe even called "too sensitive: in your life by others? Is your Myers briggs personality a INFP, ENFP, INFJ, or ENFJ? We are most likely a really good match for doing one on one counseling together. To learn your Myers briggs go www.humanmetrics.com/personality Specialties: For both individual and couples work I come from an Attachment lens.. where the ways you were attuned with in the earlier stages of development relate to how you treat your own emotional world and how you show up in partnership. These ways of being were usually useful and might no longer be? Luckily, these responses can all be adapted based on what will be more efficient in your life now! Credentials & Experience: I have extensive experience working with developmental attachment trauma, anxiety, self esteem issues, relational issues, anxiety, and grief. My style is warm and relational and I believe that the only way we really heal is by experiencing being cared for and attuned with and seen by another.
