What's My Approach to Therapy?
Within our work together, we explore anything that you feel is preventing you from living as your most authentic, self-compassionate Self. Whether you are carrying daily life stress, the loss of a loved one, challenges with adapting to a new life transition, deep and debilitating sadness, the burden of a traumatic experience, or even struggling to make sense of what you are feeling, I'm here to honor your reality - whatever that may be - so you can begin your healing process. With compassion and curiosity, my role is to help you nurture and strengthen that which encourages you to feel heard, liberated, and fulfilled.
In my work, I draw from a range of approaches, largelymostly from Internal Family Systems (IFS), with additional integration of Polyvagal Theory, Mindfulness, Somatic Experiencing, and Attachment Based Therapy. I offer holistic practices that honor the whole person - mind, body, and spirit.
I founded Root & Return Wellness upon the belief that we are all human - meaning it is natural to feel a multitude of emotions that are both unique to the individual, as well as interconnected with our relationships with others. I believe the path to healing and growth begins with connecting to one's self and the leadership already within you.
