I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, and the lingering effects of stress and trauma. I also work with those navigating relationship challenges, whether related to communication, boundaries, or patterns that create disconnection or distress. My approach is grounded yet dynamic, integrating traditional talk therapy with evidence-based mind-body techniques such as hypnotherapy, mindfulness, EFT, and somatic regulation tools. These methods help clients move from survival mode toward greater clarity, calm, and confidence.
With extensive experience in outpatient, inpatient, and hospital settings—as well as years of teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate level, I bring a comprehensive understanding of mental health across diverse contexts. I hold advanced doctoral education and training in nutrition and herbal medicine, which informs my holistic, whole-person approach.
I believe healing isn’t just about fixing what’s wrong, but about reconnecting to your inner wisdom and creating space to become who you’re meant to be. I offer a compassionate, supportive environment for those feeling overwhelmed, navigating life transitions, or seeking deeper fulfillment in their relationships and overall well-being.
