If you’re a cycle breaker, adjusting to a life transition, or just want to feel heard - this is a space where you don’t have to justify your pain or downplay your experiences. My clients are often dysregulated, stuck, surviving on dark humor and stress hormones. I work with overwhelmed women, silently unraveling men, & emerging young adults who are navigating modern chaos. I also utilize expressive arts with children 8+ who struggle with anxiety/stress. You’re probably holding it together most of the time. You don’t have to do that here. Whether you need to revisit the past or learn how to move forward-this space is for you.
I have 11 years of experience treating individuals using a holistic, trauma/hope informed approach. I’m laid back and bring warmth, realness, and humor to help you recenter. I use somatic and narrative strategies for processing; skill building to form healthier habits. Let's renew your zeal for life and reconnect with those dormant parts of yourself.
Something clicked when I learned that my brain tries to protect me at all costs. As a traumatized brain does, it becomes overactive and we start to avoid discomfort. If you feel your nervous system has taken over or you no longer feel your mind is a safe place, I see you. If you feel called to learn more about the mind/body connection, please reach out.
