Do you feel stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by unresolved pain or trauma? You may be navigating self-doubt, strained relationships, or life transitions, unsure of how to move forward. I work with emerging adults (18-29) and millennial women to explore the intersections of identity, sexuality, spirituality, and trauma. Together, we’ll uncover patterns that no longer serve you, fostering deeper self-understanding, self-acceptance, and emotional resilience. My goal is to help you create meaningful, lasting change and build more fulfilling relationships.
I offer long-term, insight-oriented psychotherapy tailored to you. Through deep exploration and self-reflection, I help you heal from past trauma, improve emotional regulation, and build stronger connections with yourself and others. My focus is on empowering you to embrace authenticity and agency in all areas of life.
Facing these struggles alone can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it by yourself. I’m here to support you as you take meaningful steps on your journey toward healing, self-compassion and emotional growth. Reach out for a 20-minute consultation call to discuss your needs and see if we're a good fit for one another.
