Do you struggle with managing difficult feelings, lost your sense of self, or are having interpersonal problems? Is it affecting your ability to function in day-to-day life? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated just getting through the day? Do you hope that life could be better? Are you feeling uncertain about how to move forward and heal from childhood trauma or sexual abuse? Looking for support navigating BPD, PTSD, emotional regulation or relationship challenges? I am passionate about providing trauma-focused psychotherapy services to folks of all identities on their unique healing journey.
I believe there is hope, answers and a path forward. My services are informed by DBT, attachment, polyvagal, existential, psychodynamic, parts-based, and somatic work. We start with understanding where you are now and how you got there. We then create a plan together on how best to support you that shapes our sessions together.
I offer an inclusive, compassionate approach and an intersectional/systems lens to help you get the help you need. I currently provide virtual services, in-person to be resumed fall 2026. I am also an Associate Therapist at the Centre for Treatment for Sexual Abuse and Childhood Trauma. I’m happy to have 15-30 minute consultation to explore next steps.
