When you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, burnout, or ongoing stress, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or constantly on edge. Maybe something happened—recently or long ago—that changed how you show up in the world. Even if you’ve never labeled it as trauma, you know something hasn’t felt right. You’re not broken—you’ve been carrying more than anyone should carry alone. In therapy, you’ll have a calm, supportive space where you don’t have to be the strong one. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
You may have tried therapy before. Maybe it helped a little. Maybe it didn’t go deep enough. In this space, you don’t have to shrink yourself, perform, or pretend everything’s okay. You get to bring your grief, your anger, your hope. I offer a culturally responsive, trauma-informed approach that centers your lived experience and honors your resilience.
Together, we’ll work to: regulate your nervous system, feel safer in your body; heal and manage anxiety symptoms; understand how trauma—personal and collective—has shaped you; reconnect with joy, purpose, and community; rewrite the internalized messages that no longer belong to you. You deserve healing and to take up space, just as you are.

I use EMDR with first responders, veterans, and others impacted by trauma. This evidence-based approach helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. EMDR supports healing by safely accessing unresolved trauma so you can move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and peace.
