If you're an over-achieving individual struggling to find balance in life, you've come to the right place! I'm not only someone who has overcome these struggles personally, but I've supported countless people in therapy with this issue. I'm also passionate about supporting folks seeking to overcome symptoms of trauma so that they can feel more at peace within themselves. For this reason, I also I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), a type of therapy that has been considered one of the most effective treatments for trauma according to the World Health Organization.

As we work through our emotional pain and ruminating thoughts, I understand how it can feel incredibly isolating and overwhelming, especially if we become disconnected from ourselves in the process. I believe that people often turn to therapy feeling “stuck,” and while it may feel as though our lives have hit a pause button, the world around us continues to move forward. Whether you are seeking to improve emotional regulation, strengthen interpersonal relationships, navigate unexpected life transitions, or if you simply find yourself without a clear understanding of the underlying issue, my goal is to create a comforting experience.

If you are an individual adult looking to heal attachment wounds, process trauma, or cultivate strategies to manage anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, or chronic illness, I would love the opportunity to see if we would be a good therapeutic fit for one another. Many people who contact me have been told they may be an ideal candidate for EMDR. Others may have sought traditional talk therapy for their developmental trauma in the past but are now curious about a different evidence-based treatment that combines both a top-down (cognitive) and a bottom-up (somatic) approach.
