My clients are sensitive, intuitive, often deeply feeling humans who find me when they've tried everything to feel better and realized the answer has to come from somewhere deeper. Maybe they’re tired of the same old thought spirals, the same old relationship patterns, the same old doom-scrolling-to-dissociate at the end of the day. Many have gone through faith shifts and are finding their way to a spirituality (or a life) that actually fits who they are now. Some are carrying trauma that's ready to be put down, and some just need a place to slow down and actually hear themselves think. If any of this resonates, welcome.
I’m a relational, psychodynamic-at-heart therapist, which means the way I work will help you get to the heart of what’s underneath all those surface struggles. I use EMDR, parts work, body-based/somatics, and emotion-focused methods to support your healing and growth. I also specialize in helping those navigating OCD with exposure-based therapy.
I know how overwhelming it can feel to reach out to therapists who seem like a good fit, only to hear... crickets. I try to make this part as easy and warm as possible. If you'd like to connect, please reach out and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. My website is also a great place to get a better sense of how I work, and book a free consult call.
