We heal in connection.
We live in a world that is constantly triggering our treat-defense systems. If you’ve experienced trauma or difficult circumstances this may happen even more frequently for you. But we all have wounds that come from being human, and we have all found ways to protect ourselves from the pain these wounds cause.
Maybe the way that you’re coping is causing you problems and you would like to change.
Therapy isn’t about pathologizing your wounds or how you’ve been coping so far. It’s about healing. Fortunately in addition to our threat-defense system we also have a care-system. When the care system is activated, oxytocin and endorphins are released, which helps to reduce stress and increase feelings of safety and security. My hope is that you feel a compassionate presence when you work with me, because it's the space in which healing can occur. We will work together, at your pace, on your goals, exploring how to access your own self-compassion to also activate this care-system so that you can live a life you love.
