You're thoughtful, high-achieving, and often there for others—yet anxiety, burnout, or chronic pain may be weighing you down. You might feel stuck in old patterns or overwhelmed by trauma or life transitions. I work with sensitive, driven adults who want to feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally free. Online therapy can offer a space to slow down, heal, and reconnect with what really matters.
Many of the people I work with are navigating the effects of trauma, anxiety, chronic pain, or long-held patterns of perfectionism and self-doubt. I draw from EMDR, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, and Somatic Experiencing, weaving in a relational and culturally attuned lens. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface and support your nervous system in fee
Therapy with me is a collaborative process—supportive, thoughtful, attuned to your pace. Together we’ll explore what’s been hard, what you’ve carried for too long, and what might finally feel possible. I use mind-body approaches, EMDR, and depth-oriented therapy to help you reconnect with yourself in meaningful ways. Reach out today for a free consultation.

The relationship with your therapist may be what most influences outcomes and how much you get out of therapy. Building a trusting and safe relationship can take time, but listening to your instinct and who you connect best with from the start is helpful. I bring approaches such as EMDR, mindfulness, psychodynamic, relational, narrative, and somatic therapy to help support what works for you.
