You’re tired of the weight of other people’s expectations.

You need more time for yourself, without magically adding more hours to the day.

You’ve been missing out on empathy and compassion

Working with me looks like learning to:

  • Connect pieces that didn’t seem to connect before. 

  • Reparent your hurt places with attunement that was lacked in childhood.

  • Connect research-backed new insight from the field of neuroscience to find out why your pain is so important.

  • Get a solid understanding of why you have these symptoms and triggers.

  • Go beyond talk therapy and learn your own body-mind connection

  • Get in-session exercises to take home to soothe, regulate, and heal.

I approach somatic therapy in Huntsville AL from a place of lived experience and working through my own pain. I’m not going to ask you to go anywhere I’ve not plunged myself. There’s a genuineness about me, a sense of doing the work with you.

You won’t be alone in this.

Am I the right therapist for you?

You’ve seen the social media posts and self help articles but you need something catered to you.

You’ve done traditional talk therapy but need something that incorporates the entirety of your body, mind, and heart, and your lived experience. 

Maybe you have friends and family members who just cheerlead or give you advice (or even criticism!).

I work with clients who are looking for a haven from all the platitudes. Therapy with me is rooted from a place of compassion, because I’ve walked my own pain journey (and I’ve heard the unhelpful advice!). 

And I offer more than just compassion.

I started out lay counseling, but decided to go back to school because I knew something more was needed.

Empathy, compassion, check. I had those!

But I knew there was something deeper, more rooted, more fundamental that I needed to learn. So I learned the science that explains how we get to these stuck places and how to get unstuck.

I chose to go to the “Boundaries” school for my Master’s Degree. My graduate program was founded and led by Dr. John Townsend, co-author of the bestselling book Boundaries. I bring boundaries work into my clinical practice for clients who are struggling with guilt saying “no.”

Clients who choose me love doing the deep work that gets us places. They are ready to move beyond the 1-2-3 step solutions and start caring for themselves like no one else has. That’s the difference in me and other approaches. We get to the root for deep-seated healing that lasts.

Clients describe me as deep thinking and insightful, with an ability to remember and connect things I’ve heard in different sessions.
