I work with adults carrying the weight of unresolved trauma, anxiety, grief, or chronic stress, many of whom are high-functioning on the outside while feeling quietly depleted within. I also work with couples stuck in cycles of conflict or disconnection. Most have tried to understand themselves through thinking alone. What brings them here is the sense that something deeper - held in the body, the nervous system, the relational patterns - still needs attention. Through EMDR, IFS, Gottman Method, somatic work, and nervous system regulation, we move toward healing that's felt, not just understood.
I specialize in EMDR, the Gottman Method for couples, and IFS-informed therapy, woven together with ACT, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation. My approach is integrative and genuinely responsive: tailored to you, not applied from a fixed protocol. Sessions are available in person in Lakewood, via telehealth across Ohio, or walking
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable-especially if you've tried before and still carry something unresolved. That courage deserves to be met with care. If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. A free consultation is a no-pressure way to see if we're a good fit.

I help people heal from trauma, anxiety, grief, and relational patterns that no longer serve them. Using EMDR, IFS, ACT, Gottman Method, somatic practices, and mindfulness, we work to process what's unresolved, regulate the nervous system, and build new patterns from the inside out. Most clients move toward greater steadiness, clearer relationships, and a deeper sense of themselves.
