The weight of survival, changing yourself to fit inside systems that were never meant for you has become unbearable. The old strategies, hypervigilance, the exhausting mental loops that once kept you safe now feel like a prison. And at some point, you said: "Enough". If you’re here, I see you. I know the battle you’re fighting because I help people dismantle it everyday. I specialize in trauma therapy using EMDR, Brainspotting, and IFS: modalities that don’t just help you cope but dismantle what’s keeping you stuck. Imagine a future where your choices are truly yours. You deserve more than survival. Reach out, and let’s begin!
I ask you to bring your whole self to therapy and I do the same. As a lesbian, neurodivergent parent who has embraced a non-traditional life and left a high-control religion, I understand the challenges and rewards of living authentically. My experiences allow me to support you courageously finding your unique life path. Visit my website to learn more
Clients describe me as warm, safe and down to earth. They describe feeling seen in a distinct way and feeling lighter and noticing different thought patterns after therapy. I trust you as the expert of yourself and I act as your curious and compassionate facilitator. Are you ready to work together? Schedule a free 15 minute consultation today!
