You don’t have to keep it together here. Some days feel like a quiet “meh” you can’t shake. Other days are a full-on dumpster fire where you’re trying not to burn down with it. Maybe you are anxious, depressed, grieving, angry, masking so hard you forget who you are, or running on fumes from pretending to be “fine.” I get it—and I’m not here to hand you a list of 10 ways to be happy or ask you to meditate your feelings away. I work with people who live life outside the boxes—neurodivergent folks, LGBTQIA+ teens and adults, and anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t quite fit in.

Do you feel anxious, stuck, or uncertain of yourself in relationships? Maybe you find yourself overanalyzing texts, second-guessing your decisions, or repeating patterns that leave you feeling disconnected or dissatisfied. You may long for closeness while also feeling overwhelmed by it, unsure how to trust yourself or others. You’re tired of just managing relationship anxiety and ready to understand what’s beneath it. You want calmer, more secure relationships that feel safe, reciprocal, and emotionally fulfilling.

If trauma has shaped your story, I help you discover that it doesn’t have to define your future. I specialize in EMDR therapy to help clients move beyond feeling “stuck”—whether from trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or persistent struggles with anxiety and depression. EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach that supports the brain’s natural healing process, creating lasting change and renewed momentum. With children and younger adolescents, I integrate play therapy and expressive arts based approaches to foster emotional expression, build resilience, and support healthy development.
