If you are struggling with emotional overwhelm, shame, or feeling lost or empty- welcome. Living with anxiety, mood instability, and intense emotions can feel exhausting and isolating. It can affect our self worth, confidence, and feeling of purposefulness in the world. The impact of trauma, addiction, and mental health concerns can limit us from fully participating in our lives and relationships. Having personally experienced the benefits of therapy, I know how important it is to get the right support to navigate these issues.
I’m passionate about supporting people in exploring internal patterns, core belief systems, and stressors as well as developing practical tools to cope with day to day life. I also offer Brainspotting therapy, a modality used to treat trauma and emotional pain, as either a primary focus or adjunct to talk therapy.
Therapy is a collaborative and creative process where we work together to cultivate a life that's in alignment with what matters most to you. At the core of my practice lies a deep belief in the power of authentic connection and a dedication to creating a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your inner world with honesty, compassion, and curiosity.
