My website
I often work with thoughtful, self-aware people who understand their patterns and still find life and/or relationships tricky to navigate. They might overthink their responses or struggle with shame, self-criticism, people-pleasing, shutting down, or losing self- connection. Many are queer, trans, neurodivergent, or feel out of place in normative spaces. Together, we co-create right relationship and feel our way towards steadiness, deeper connection, and greater self-trust.
My office.
I offer depth-oriented somatic, parts-based therapy for people navigating complex trauma. Sessions are collaborative and experiential; we slow things down, track what’s happening in the body, and work with your process in real time. This approach supports embodied change rather than coping alone.
I offer a free 20 minute consult call for potential new clients so we can both feel into whether or not we're a therapeutic match. On the call we can get to know each other a bit and you can ask me any questions you have about my approach, education and experience. Email to book.

I also specialize in couples and relationship counseling, supporting partners who are navigating the impact of trauma in their relationship. Trauma can show up as emotional triggers, intimacy challenges, or a push-pull dynamic of abandonment fears and the need for space. I help couples learn to move through conflict, deepen their understanding of one another, and build secure relationships.

I use Somatic therapy and Internal Family Systems (parts work) to help you resolve trauma at the nervous system level. Over time, you can expect to feel more connection to your body, have more clarity in your relationships, and a growing sense of self-trust and inner stability.
