Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and have spent a long time being the strong one for others. They’ve survived difficult experiences – trauma, painful relationships, chronic stress, identity struggles, or loss – and now feel ready to heal the impact of it rather than keep pushing through. Healing isn’t about eliminating parts of yourself, but about welcoming all of you. I named my practice Eclipse because it reflects the heart of my work: An eclipse occurs when shadow and light come together and coexist — and in that meeting, something beautiful appears.
As a trauma-informed therapist (EMDR, parts work/IFS, attachment), I help clients explore the roots of their patterns, interrupt survival strategies that no longer serve them, make sense of their emotions, and build self-trust and internal safety. My style is warm, collaborative, and direct — with lots of room for the healing power of humor, too!
You’ll receive science-based insight and real-world skills for coping, communicating, and connecting. The relationship we build also becomes part of the work – a space to try new ways of being seen, supported, and understood. If this information resonates with you, I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you reclaim your hope and wholeness.
