Do you struggle with feelings of never being good enough? Are you living under the shadow of an inner critic that questions or shames your every move? I specialize in helping those struggling with anxiety, shame, and emotional dysregulation. If those feelings rob parenting, work, or social interactions of satisfaction, you are not alone. With all the challenges that life brings, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and exhausted. Together, we can explore how to reconnect with your authentic self — not the version you think you should be.

Hi! My areas of interest and expertise include working with people who have survived trauma and sexual abuse. Initially, I build rapport and a trusting relationship with you. One of our first tasks will involve identifying your values and strengths, and focusing on safety and stability; this is a major component to allowing successful trauma processing and resolution to occur. I also enjoy working with adolescents; having once been a teen in need of additional support, I am able to empathize and quickly connect with young people. Other topics focused on at my practice are BPD, anger management, self-esteem, and relational issues.

Sometimes we are living at our best, in harmony with the highs and lows of life. Other times we are stressed, uncertain, overwhelmed and need help with the balance. Relationships are impacted, connections may be strained between family members, past experiences can affect the ability to live in the present moment. Major life transitions can be difficult, and feelings may seem too big to manage.

With over 10 years experience as a trauma therapist, my practice is strongly committed to you and your needs for support and healing. I am especially passionate about working with folks in the perinatal period, which includes pregnancy, post-partum, and the early years of parenting. I have both clinical training and lived experience in navigating the perinatal period, and genuinely grasp the challenges of this time where folks are often bombarded with information and advice from the internet, social media, health and social systems, family members, and friends; much of which can feel more overwhelming than helpful.
