"Sometimes, the hardest battles are against the things you can't see, but every step forward brings you closer to healing." -Unknown. Dealing with anxiety, depression or trauma can affect not just your mind but your body, relationships, and sense of self. Together, we will work at a pace that feels right for you. We will explore what may be holding you back from moving forward, processing the heavy events in a way that honors your experiences while also nurturing your resilience and strength.
Trauma can leave us feeling isolated or disconnected, but it doesn’t have to define your future. Through evidence-based techniques, such as EMDR, I can help you reframe your experiences, reduce emotional distress, and build healthier coping. The goal is to help you regain a sense of control, restore emotional balance, & ultimately reclaim your life.
Thank you for considering me as a part of your healing journey. If you’re here, it’s likely because you’re navigating the impact of trauma, anxiety or depression. I want you to know that you don’t have to go through this alone. Healing from trauma can feel overwhelming, but it is possible, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I use mostly EMDR Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what targets brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With EMDR, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. We will then reprocess them to get a healthier experience and outlook on targets.
