It is so nice to meet the brave people who are wanting to address their mental health. My practice is as a generalist, so we can address a wide range of topics. Somatic psychotherapy is used to integrate the body and mind. If previous trauma or stress was a part of your life, we can explore together how to work with the past, present, and future.

These clients are looking to go beyond talking and want to achieve an existence where they are no longer controlled by the problem.
