As an Emotionally-Focused Therapist and Supervisor in both couples and individual counseling, I help aspiring EFT therapists to refine their practice in order to obtain certification and be more effective in their counseling. There is an emphasis on the alliance between myself and the supervisee, conceptualization from an EFT lens, honing experiential skills, and especially the person of the therapist. Use of video observation and role play are key elements of experiential learning and growing.

Specializing in helping you navigate your emotional world unto a more authentic life
Did you know that both anxiety and depression are caused by unprocessed emotions?
To keep from being overwhelmed by them, we all naturally suppress emotions when we do not feel supported enough to face them. Whether this is due to being raised by a single parent, emotional neglect, or traumatic experience, the result is devastating. What was once a brilliant coping mechanism for our survival becomes a cyclonic pattern that we do not know how to escape — and we are left numb, suffering in a life that is bleak, absent of vitality, and so far from all we had imagined it would be. But you KNOW there is more. You can see it in the people around you and you want it for yourself. You want to feel the lows AND highs, to see the vibrant color in the world around you, to be your most authentic self.
As a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist, I will help you face your emotions and pain, both past and present, so that they no longer have power over you. I am here to accompany you or your relationship into the foreign territory of your inner world, guiding you into the places that may be too scary to go alone. You can learn a new way of being, and I will show you how.
You have struggled and suffered long enough. Don't allow another day to go by in despair, fear, pain, and shame. Allow me the sacred honor of guiding you as you befriend your emotional world and access the wisdom of your body so that you can experience the life of peace, connection, and freedom that you were created for.
