Do you ever feel like your brain just wont turn off? Like no matter what you do, your thoughts spin, and you struggle to set boundaries, prioritize your own needs, or quiet the voice inside that says you're not enough? Maybe you are even noticing chronic pain or migraines? If you are a high-achiever, feeling burnt out, overwhelmed by anxiety, or carrying the weight of past trauma and are ready for something different - you are in the right place. Together we'll create a space for healing, self-compassion, & real change.
For 10+ years I've been helping individuals & couples overcome challenges with anxiety, OCD, trauma / PTSD, chronic pain, & attachment wounds. My approach often blends ACT, EMDR, and somatic therapy to rewire pain pathways in the brain, support nervous system healing, and build deeper self trust; So you can feel safe and connected to yourself and others.
You don't have to push through on your own. Therapy can be a space where you feel seen, challenged with care, and supported in building something different. If you're ready for change, even if you're not sure where to start, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Reach out for a consultation, and lets build a life you love.

I use a mix of therapy styles to tailor treatment to each client I work with. However, I find clients are often drawn to my style of therapy when they have tried traditional CBT and have hit a block. This is where I love to integrate ACT, EMDR, PRT, and somatic approaches to help my clients get unstuck and move forward.
