Many of my clients appear capable and responsible on the outside but feel stuck internally. They may struggle with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or persistent self-doubt. Often these patterns stem from earlier experiences that shaped beliefs about self-worth, safety, belonging, or personal agency. In therapy we work to process these experiences, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself, others, and the life you want to build.
My work is trauma-informed and EMDR-focused. I help clients process experiences that continue to affect how they see themselves, their relationships, and the world. I integrate EMDR with approaches such as CBT, DBT, and parts-informed therapy to support emotional regulation, insight, and meaningful, lasting change.
Reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, but it can also be a powerful step toward change. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past experiences, therapy can help you understand what’s happening and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. Feel free to book a free initial call—I’d be glad to connect with you.

Therapy with me is collaborative, structured, and goal-oriented. Many clients come in feeling stuck in patterns such as anxiety, trauma responses, relationship struggles, or self-doubt.

I primarily use EMDR in my practice and integrate evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, and parts-informed therapy. In our first sessions, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and clarify the goals you want to work toward. Together we identify patterns that keep you stuck and process underlying experiences so you can develop new skills, insight, and lasting change.
