If you’ve endured a painful childhood and challenges with relationships throughout your life, you don’t have to carry the weight alone. I help adults heal from family dysfunction- narcissistic, critical, or emotionally unavailable parents- and relationship wounds that leave you feeling unseen, unworthy, or unsafe. Many of my clients are high-achieving perfectionists whose pasts interfere with calm in the present, or people whose pasts keep them from reaching their full potential. I use mind-body therapies that reach the root of emotional overwhelm, helping you feel confident, safe, and in empowered to move forward with your life.
I specialize in getting to the root of struggles that stem from unmet childhood needs. Early experiences shape how we love, connect, and regulate. Through EMDR and mind-body work, I help you calm your nervous system and feel more confident in love, friendships, career, and within yourself.
Doing this kind of inner work can be hard - it means loosening habits like perfectionism, overthinking, or people-pleasing that once kept you safe. As a therapist I’m warm, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to, so you can feel safe while you heal.I know how hard it can be to ask for help - reach out when you’re ready, and I’ll respond within 24 hours.
