Vulnerability.

What comes to mind when you read/hear that word?

Many of us have a very difficult relationship to this word. Maybe you lived in an environment that saw vulnerability as a weakness, maybe due to being in survival mode or just due to outside expectations (or both). Maybe you lived in a world where because of this belief, you never saw any vulnerable emotions being modeled by your caregivers or anyone else around you other than anger or fear. In today’s world, we’re taught that having emotions and feeling deeply into them is for the weak or for the lame. But in reality, being emotional and having emotions is part of the human experience. To deny that aspect of ourselves is to never truly enjoy the ebbs & flow that life has to offer.

There are many reasons for why you might be disconnected from your emotions but regardless of the reason, the fact is that denying our emotions creates a belief in us that we are not worthy of being seen, heard or valued. And if you’ve experienced this denying of the emotions for a long time, you might even have some feelings of resentment. Trust me, I know this cycle all too well. The key is to tap into your emotions by way of the body — literally EMBODYING your true, human self.

That is the goal of working with me in a therapeutic space. I know how much it hurts to feel invisible, like you’re unworthy, unloveable and unheard. I also know how hard it can be to tap into your body when all you’ve done for most, if not all of your life is try to numb, escape and/or ignore your feelings altogether. I want to reassure you that you are worthy, you are loved, and you matter. I am here to listen to your stories. I hope to create a space that feels safe for you, your life stories, and your vulnerabilities. Together, we will work on learning to acknowledge & accept the emotions that come, feel into them, and process them so that they don’t manifest into physical hurts and pains.

Individual Sessions

  • Numbed feelings or extreme feelings but never really anything in between. You try to keep it together by faking it but you’re exhausted. Depression. Anxiety. Stress. Burnout. Loss of identity. You’re trying to get out of the cycle but you just can’t… If this sounds like you then you’re in the right place.

    In these sessions, we will dive into your past — including but not limited to your childhood, your family-of-origin, and your attachment style & how these relate to your current day dillemmas as well as find ways to break the cycle.

    You’ll learn about yourself on a deeper, more integrated level in order to rewrite the old narrative and start living life on your terms.

    PLEASE NOTE THIS SERVICE IS FOR FLORIDA RESIDENTS ONLY.

  • Each session is 50 minutes however, longer sessions can be scheduled on a case-by-case basis.

  • $160 per session

    $10 is added for every additional 5 minutes unless a longer session was discussed in advance.

Parenting Sessions

  • You know that saying, “there isn’t a manual for parenting”? There might not be a manual but there’s tons of brain science research out that that’s cracked the code on parent-child interactions and how to break the cycle of disconnection.

    Using my knowledge of child development, play therapy, parent-child interactions and neuroscience, we will dive into your past, family-of-origin, family cycles and how they all relate to the present.

    In the process, you’ll learn more about yourself & your child(ren) as well as ways to improve your relationship in order to create and maintain a happy & healthy family unit.
