Are you someone who is self-aware, open, and ready to grow, but still find yourself struggling to feel safe or connected in intimacy? You may feel distant from your body or partner, unsure how to let your guard down, and frustrated that old wounds still hold power. You’re tired of carrying shame or self-blame. But you’re ready to feel grounded and safe again. You’re ready to rebuild trust and connection. Most of all, you’re ready to feel whole—free to love, feel, and live fully. I want to help you get there.

I specialize in working with inividuals and couples struggling with trauma and PTSD, sexual abuse, and relationship issues. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who is knowledgeable, accessable, and affirming, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe and understood. Sessions with me are collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you.

I’ll meet you where you are on your unique journey and offer you the support you need to feel safe, rebuild trust, and reconnect with yourself and your relationships. A life where you experience authentic intimacy and self-confidence is possible. You don’t have to continue feeling disconnected or unsafe in intimacy, and you don’t have to do it alone. Call me
