At The Woven Self, I offer a compassionate, grounded space to explore what’s feeling heavy, unclear, or stuck. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and rooted in curiosity. Together, we’ll untangle old patterns, reconnect with your inner strengths, and begin to weave a life that feels more aligned and whole.
I offer focused psychological strategies such as EMDR, CBT, ACT, psycho-education, relaxation techniques, somatic work and Canine Assisted Therapy with my dog Maple.

I support clients facing anxiety, burnout, life transitions, identity questions, and trauma. Treatment may involve building self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and shifting limiting patterns. Over time, clients often experience greater clarity, inner steadiness, self-trust, and a deeper sense of connection - both to themselves and connections.
