My website
I help adults find more peace and have less chaos in their lives. For over a decade, I worked in a psychiatric hospital specializing in trauma, addiction, and recovery. I specialize in trauma, CPTSD, addictions, and mental illness. My practice is rooted in Hakomi psychosomatic therapy using the wisdom of the body to heal from past experiences. If you've tried talk therapy and are wanting to take the next step into deeper healing, somatic therapy might be a good fit for you. Together we will explore how the strategies that used to work, or keep you safe may no longer be effective and help you live a more connected and free life.
My approach is rooted in Hakomi Therapy, a psychosomatic body-centered method that gently reveals the unconscious beliefs shaping your life. As we move through life we may gain new insights to missing experiences, or we may have symptoms like anxiety and not know why. Hakomi therapy uses mindfulness and a right to right brain approach to help us heal.
You deserve spaces where you do not have to shrink, censor, or feel judged for who you are. My practice is designed to be a sanctuary for healing — a place where you can explore who you are without being misunderstood or judged. Healing can be hard, and you don't have to do it alone.

I work with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or caught in repeating relational patterns. Common concerns include anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, relationship & attachment wounds, grief and life transitions, trauma (including developmental and relational trauma), shame, low self-worth, and the quiet sense of "something isn't right, but I don't know why".

I use Hakomi Therapy, which is a somatic mindfulness based approach that uses parts (IFS) language. I also integrate imaginal nurturing and top-down approaches when needed. As someone who has worked in the field of addictions, mental illness, and trauma for over ten years I believe we need an integrated approach of bottom-up (somatic) and top down (cognitive) therapies to achieve wellness.
