I believe healing relationships with others starts with healing the relationship with yourself.

Hi, I’m Jaclyn (she), and I believe healing happens in the context of loving, trustworthy, and accepting relationships. I know because that’s what it took for me. What I discovered in my early therapy is that I had become disconnected from my true self. I repeated relationship patterns over and over again. I used self-sabotaging coping mechanisms. I felt shame, self-doubt, and dissatisfaction in my life. I constantly looked to others to be and feel okay. I didn’t know how to truly take care of myself and expected a lot from my relationships. Once I gained insight into my patterns, I understood that I was coping in the only ways I knew how. Through loving, compassionate regard from several of my therapists, I received corrective, emotional experiences. This was when I learned how to offer myself compassion, love, and patience. Much of my healing occurred and continues through body-based therapy focus.

Healing is possible for you too. Together, we’ll explore your relationship with yourself and others. We’ll practice connecting your mind, body, and emotions to create safety and calmness within you. We’ll assess old narratives of who you are and discover what you truly need and want. We’ll take a look at your relationships and empower you to change dysfunctional patterns. You’ll gain skills to stay present with yourself in life’s easy moments as well as during stress, struggle, and pain.
