Hi there, I'm Heidi!

My work is integrative and experiential, grounded in talk therapy but weaving Hakomi mindfulness, sensory explorations, and IFS/ inner child/parts work to expose deeply embedded beliefs and patterns. Together, we invite feelings to emerge but never force them. Sessions are challenging while still being gentle, affirmative, and sometimes even fun :)

My focus

My clients typically experienced childhood trauma that manifests as anxiety and depression in adulthood. Clients may suffer from perfectionism, workaholism, codependency, attachment anxiety or fear, stagnation, or decision-paralysis... If you feel like you see your patterns but don't know how to disrupt them, somatic therapy is the key!

My approach

I'm heavily trained in somatic psychotherapy but typically sessions are a blend: Talking, and when something potent emerges, tuning in to contact it more deeply and pull in Hakomi, IFS, EMDR, tapping, or expressive art to process. Trust and safety are key so we always honor resistance with gentleness and compassion and let your body lead the way!
