I believe the most important relationship we’ll ever have is with ourselves. When we experience trauma, how we view our world, self & others, changes. Even after the trauma has passed, our minds make us believe we are still in danger which makes it difficult to feel calm. Trauma causes intrusive thoughts, cognitive distortions, flashbacks & nightmares, which can lead to depression, anxiety, avoidance & maladaptive coping strategies including substance misuse. Feeling overwhelmed & managing intense emotions can be difficult. If this sounds like you, I am interested in working with you to heal past wounds & regain a sense of control.

Life can be overwhelming, especially when we experience relationship shifts. Divorce, separation, infidelity, parenting and communication challenges can leave us feeling stuck or lost.

My neurodiverse affirmative therapeutic practice is grounded in warmth, acceptance, and curiosity, creating a collaborative space for you to explore your feelings without judgment.
