Be More Yourself:

My Approach
If you’re struggling with behaviors, thoughts, or situations you wish were different, I believe you can heal from the underlying issues causing those challenges. My approach is to support you as you access the innate wisdom and healing abilities that are already within you.
I use Internal Family Systems Therapy and Ketamine Assisted Therapy as a guide to help you to be able to heal yourself.
Internal Family Systems Therapy
Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy recognizes that we all have different "parts" inside us—like an inner family with unique roles and feelings. You might notice a critical part that judges you, an anxious part that worries about the future, or a people-pleasing part that fears rejection. These parts are actually trying to protect you from emotional pain, though sometimes in ways that no longer serve you.
At your core is your true Self—naturally compassionate, curious, calm, and confident. During IFS therapy, we'll help you connect with this Self, understand your parts with kindness, and heal the wounded parts carrying old hurts. As your inner system becomes more balanced, you'll experience greater self-trust, emotional freedom, and well-being in your daily life.
Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
Ketamine Assisted Therapy offers a powerful complement to IFS work by creating a unique window of opportunity for deeper healing. During ketamine sessions, the medicine temporarily relaxes the protective parts that normally guard your system—those parts that might manifest as inner critics, people-pleasers, or controllers. As these protectors step back, you gain enhanced access to your Self-energy—that wise, compassionate core within you. In this expanded state, your Self can more easily connect with and understand your protective parts, building trust and positive relationships with them. This collaborative approach allows for gentler access to wounded parts that may have been difficult to reach through traditional therapy alone. By combining ketamine's neuroplasticity-enhancing properties with IFS principles, we create a safe container for profound transformation where healing can occur with greater ease and compassion.
