Many people find themselves caught between what they know to be true and what they still believe about themselves deep down. You may logically recognize that you ARE capable, lovable, and resilient, yet still find yourself pulled back by old beliefs that whisper “I’m not enough” or “I am helpless.” These beliefs are often tied to past experiences that left a lasting emotional imprint, even when your logical mind has moved on. Together, we’ll identify where these negative beliefs first took hold and begin to reprocess and reframe them, so they no longer control how you see yourself or react to life’s challenges.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices such as EMDR, CBT, and parts work. I work with parents, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. This work creates space for new perspectives that feel true not only in your head, but in your heart and body as well.
Whether you’re feeling weighed down by past experiences or simply want to show up more fully in your relationships and daily life, therapy can help you reclaim your voice, your sense of worth, and your ability to move forward with clarity and confidence. Let’s chat. I offer a free 15-minute consult to get started.

Parts Work explores different parts of yourself to create more balance and self-understanding.
