Individual

At A New Way Counseling Collective, I help individuals experience trauma-informed healing through Relational Life Therapy (RLT) and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Even outside a partnership, RLT helps you understand and transform the relational patterns that keep you stuck — empowering you to build self-awareness, confidence, and connection in every area of life.

Through somatic awareness, I guide you to reconnect with your body’s wisdom, stay grounded in the present moment, and live with greater purpose and authenticity. My trauma-informed, spiritually attuned approach supports balance, resilience, and growth — helping you create the kind of relationship you want, both with yourself and with life itself.
