You’ve spent years holding it together on the outside while quietly unraveling inside—moving from job to job, relationship to relationship, caught in painful patterns that never seem to change. You second-guess yourself, overthink everything, struggle to trust others or your own judgment, and quietly wonder if you’re “the problem.” Deep down, you sense it isn’t, you know these patterns come from old wounds and experiences that shaped your nervous system long ago. They keep you disconnected from your body, stuck in your head, and carrying a low-grade heaviness that dulls joy and aliveness. ​
I help women with complex PTSD, developmental trauma, nervous system dysregulation (fight/flight/freeze), and repeating toxic patterns in relationships, work, and friendships. From chronic self-doubt, people-pleasing, low-grade depression, and feeling stuck, disconnected and lost in anxiety or rumination. Together let's rebuild clarity and self-trust.
Imagine carrying that quiet ache of never quite belonging to yourself or others, year after year. You deserve a space to finally unravel those heavy patterns and breathe freely. Reach out today; let’s uncover the grounded, joyful you waiting beneath. I’ll reply within hours to see if we’re the right fit. You're not alone. I got you.

I work with adults feeling profoundly disconnected cycling through misaligned jobs/relationships, trapped in toxic patterns from complex PTSD/developmental trauma. You ruminate anxiously, seek external validation, carry low-grade depression/body tension, react from fear/victimhood. Together, we track your nervous system for regulation, building clarity & self-trust.

I often use somatic and attachment-based therapy to help clients regulate their nervous system and heal relational wounds. In our first session, we'll attune to your body's state—fight, flight, freeze, or shutdown—and explore what brought you here. Together, we'll track patterns from developmental trauma, gently rewiring them so you respond consciously, not reactively.
