Meet Pendry

I believe in client-led work where you decide what works best for you, and I specialize in addressing the mind-body connection through various tools such as nature, art, music, meditation, and body-centered practices. I also highly recommend trying Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma. At times, I will guide you; other times, I'll stand as a witness to your inner work. I will help you process your past and present as you chart a journey towards healing, offering coping skills and providing a variety of tools for you to try along the way. I have extensive experience working cross-culturally with people from diverse backgrounds, and I will provide a judgment-free safe space for you to tell your story.
