Imagine waking up to greet the day with curiosity or excitement, feeling good about yourself rather than judging, comparing, and rejecting parts of yourself. It's been said that our essence, our soul, is ever present like the sun, yet like the sun, it can become obscured by clouds. These clouds represent the wounds and trauma you've experienced throughout your life, along with the defenses that have helped you survive, yet these defenses (people pleasing, dissociation, rage...) may no longer serve you. Together we can begin to relax these defenses allowing more of your gifts, your ever-present essence to shine through.
I specialize in helping trauma & sexual trauma survivors reclaim the life they were meant to live. My work is trauma informed, rooted in somatic principles, drawing on neuroscience and integrative modalities like EMDR, energy psychology, parts work, and mindfulness. My approach is kind and compassionate, yet I'm driven to get you the results you want to see.
I understand the pain and suffering that comes with unprocessed and unintegrated trauma, I've been there and can tell you how much better it feels when your nervous system's no longer thrown into dysregulation due to trauma reminders, triggers, flashbacks, or feelings of shame. I'd be honored to take this courageous journey of growth and healing with you.

Surviving & Thriving: Healing Sexual Trauma
In this challenging political climate many sexual harassment, assault, and abuse survivors are finding themselves triggered on a weekly if not daily basis. If you're a female identified survivor I want you to know that you don't have to experience this discomfort alone. Surviving & Thriving is a therapy group aimed to facilitate, share, and support in the transformation of relational, emotional, and somatic symptoms resulting from sexual trauma, within a safe and empowering space. The group meets Tuesday evenings from 7pm until 8:30pm and is accepting new members, call or email to set up an intake.
