Description

When getting out of bed in the morning feels challenging, I aim to hear your story and understand the root source of your shadows. I will be here to provide guidance and clarity, for you to pursue this journey with yourself safely.

You feel lost? Have low energy? Feel easily irritated with situations in life? Do you feel on the edge losing time and opportunities? I offer a space of non-judgment and act as a mirror to provide an objective perspective. Listening and reflecting back what you share to me, I present tools for compassionate inquiry to help you move through emotions.
