You’ve made it this far by pushing through—but you don’t have to keep doing it alone. If you're ready to feel more connected to yourself, or even just curious about what healing could look like, I’m here to walk alongside you as we figure it out together.

I use a blend of IFS, ACT, CBT, EMDR, and DBT. With IFS, we explore the different "parts" of you-like the critic, the protector, or the overwhelmed self-with compassion and curiosity. This approach helps you to understand your inner world, reduce internal conflict, and build upon genuine motivation, clarity, and trust in youself.
