I work with individuals, couples and families experiencing trauma, addiction, neurodivergence, anxiety and loss. Working with clients and their families in treatment for 15+ years provided me with extensive experience in the ways that maladaptive behaviors can lead to addiction, impulsivity and difficulty within our relationships. If you are looking to make changes, reduce stress, improve communication in your relationships or sustain long-term recovery, I can help. If you were affected by addiction in someone you care about or need support in managing your own emotions during a crisis, I offer practical tools to provide relief.
Neurodivergence is often misunderstood, anxiety blocks creativity, trauma changes our brain, loss can feel heavy and addiction creates chaos. As a certified trauma professional trained in EMDR, breath work, psychodrama and experiential therapy, I incorporate education and somatic approaches into therapy to make real shifts in the ways we feel stuck.
My approach focuses on understanding and improving how we manage stress, trauma and uncertainty within our day-to-day lives. Transitions in relationships, career and stages of life can be unexpected, and challenge us in ways we never imagined. Email me to discuss if working together is a good fit.
