Have you experienced medical trauma, cancer, chronic illness, or infertility and felt dismissed, disempowered, or like you’ve lost a sense of who you are? You have been through more than most people can see. Now you’re ready to make sense of it, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with strength and self-worth.
I support adults navigating the emotional impact of illness, loss, and life disruptions. Using a blend of talk therapy and creative approaches, we gently explore what you’ve been through, process difficult emotions, and rebuild a sense of identity beyond your diagnosis or trauma.
Together, we focus on helping you feel more like yourself again—grounded, empowered, and hopeful about what comes next. If you’re ready for support that sees you as a whole person, I invite you to reach out. You don't have to figure this out alone.

After facing my own cancer diagnosis at 36, I experienced how powerful creative expression can be in healing. I now support adults navigating illness, loss, and identity changes, bringing both professional training and lived experience to our work.
