Life is not a neat package. I am here to help you unpack it, keep track of it all, get rid of some of it, and keep some safe. Whether the struggle shows up as overthinking, sadness, people-pleasing, loneliness, irritability, or burnout, the common thread tends to be that something needs to shift. At the core of my approach is the establishment of a trustworthy, unbiased space. One of the trauma areas I specialize in is childhood trauma, and women's issues.
My style is nurturing, non-judgmental, and attuned to nuance. I work from a non-pathological, trauma-informed framework. My approach is deeply human and collaborative. It’s less about what’s “wrong” and more about what’s happened—and how those experiences continue to shape identity, relationships, and a sense of safety in the world.
I bring lived experience, a warm but direct presence, and a belief in the power of real connection. Sessions are shaped by what matters to the individual. There’s room for humor, contradiction, and uncertainty. And over time, space opens for deeper insight, relief, and change.
