Through personal experience with generational trauma and loss, I’m aware that pain often opens the doorway to transformation. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life’s transitions, healing, and personal growth with loving-kindness and authenticity. My work is rooted in attachment, connecting mind, body and spirit using principles of mindfulness to support holistic healing. I work with people across the lifespan-children, teens, adults, couples and families, supporting growth and healing at every stage.
I draw from a variety of trauma-informed approaches to support each person in a way that fits them best. I am trained in Integrative Regulation Therapy (iRT), IFS-Parts Work, DBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, Somatic/Energy Bodywork, and Compassionate Inquiry. I support people from diverse backgrounds, with diverse needs and ways of experiencing the world.
I bring a calm, grounded presence to our work together, creating a space where you can feel safe to share and be fully yourself. I focus on meeting you as a person, soul to soul, beyond labels or roles, creating a truly human connection. In my experience, having one compassionate presence beside you can truly make all the difference!
