Are you ready to release old burdens and blocks that get in the way of your health & happiness? If you’ve been struggling through pain, overwhelm and stress, you don't have to push through it alone. No one is meant to walk through distress in isolation, cut off from meaningful support. Healing is accelerated in connection with others. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can break through difficulties in the company of a skilled facilitator. If you are a “yes” to prioritizing your wellness and empowering yourself, I am here to support you in navigating your healing journey.
Therapy can be so much more than just talking about problems. There is potential for deep change that can unfold through specific therapeutic processes. I provide a structure that invites you to turn your focus inward with curiosity and presence. We will aim the healing compass towards tapping into your own internal wisdom and transformative truth.
My specialty is trauma-informed, experiential therapy. I use EMDR & Brainspotting as the basis for all of our work together. Depending on your needs, this may be integrated with IFS, or other approaches. If you are tired of suffering alone and are ready to address what no longer serves you, call or text me directly to book an appointment.

I am an experiential therapist. This style of therapy is a good match for anyone who wants to go beyond the traditional "talk therapy" model of monologuing your story to a passive-listening therapist. Experiential therapy invites you to turn your focus inward and move into a direct experience and re-processing of the emotional-knowings and schemas that underlie many mental / emotional struggles.
