You may be someone who has spent years trying to understand yourself, your relationships, and your emotions, yet still feels caught in patterns you cannot simply think your way out of. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or reacting in ways that don’t feel like the “real” you. Therapy can help you explore the deeper roots of these patterns, including how past experiences continue to shape your nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. Together, we can work toward greater awareness, regulation, and meaningful change.
I bring over 12 years of experience in the mental health field and use an integrative, mind–body approach that combines talk therapy, EMDR, parts work (IFS), and somatic techniques to support emotional healing and nervous system regulation. My work is informed by attachment and relational dynamics. For couples, I incorporate the Gottman Method and EFT.
Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside but internally feel stuck, uncertain, or emotionally exhausted. Together, we work to make sense of these patterns, build awareness, and create lasting shifts that feel sustainable over time. If this resonates, you’re welcome to reach out to see if working together feels like a good fit.
