Trauma, mental health concerns, and negative core beliefs can limit us from fully participating in our lives. Having personally experienced the benefits of therapy, I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing space where clients can explore their inner worlds with honesty, compassion, and curiosity. At the core of my practice lies a deep belief in the power of authentic connection and the transformative impact of therapy. For me, therapy is not a one-size-fits-all solution- it's a collaborative and creative process where we work together to cultivate a life that is in alignment with what matters most to you.
I provide therapy for adults, teens and couples. I also offer Brainspotting therapy, a modality used to treat trauma and emotional pain, as either a primary focus or adjunct to talk therapy. I specialize in supporting folks struggling with addiction, trauma, personality disorders, mood disorders, attachment wounds, and shame.
Asking for support takes a tremendous amount of courage, and it is an honor to guide folks through this process. If you're interested in beginning your therapy journey, please reach out to me and I would be happy to schedule a free consultation to see how I can best support your healing and growth.
