You’ve learned to mask, push through, and keep it together (while still feeling shame, anxiety, all the fun stuff). Maybe you’re replaying conversations in your head, running on fumes, or wondering why everything feels like too much and not enough at the same time. Not only are those problems exhausting, but now you get to scroll through the vast sea of endless therapists. I work with adults navigating trauma, ADHD, autism, and postpartum anxiety or depression (often people who’ve spent years trying to be “normal” in systems that weren’t designed for them).
My style is neuro-affirming, collaborative, and sometimes irreverent. Using EMDR and other trauma-focused approaches, we’ll explore the deeper patterns beneath the surface while moving at a pace that feels manageable. I don’t believe in forcing change. Instead, I believe in helping you build safety, curiosity, and authenticity.
Getting this process started can be overwhelming. You don’t have to continue battling who you “should be,” and you don’t have to do it alone. Call or email me today for a free 15-minute consult call. I look forward to hearing from you.

I use EMDR and parts work. Here's a sneak peek into what that looks like: EMDR explores our past and how it influences our feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. We'll beef up your skills and work towards stabilizing your life in order to heal past wounds. We're complex, contradictory, and doing the best we can. Parts work acknowledges that and helps unify that messy system.
