Are you seeking a deeper sense of ease, self-trust, and connection? You may look like you're managing well, yet inside feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or not quite “enough.” Maybe you long for closeness but find it hard to let others in, or you stay busy to avoid feelings that seem too much. In our work together, we’ll slow down and listen deeply—to the patterns that have shaped you, the protective strategies that once served you, and the emotions that have gone underground. Rooted in AEDP and trauma-informed care, I offer a space for healing through connection.
My background encompasses working with many different issues including: trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, disordered eating and body shame. My style of therapy is collaborative, warm and authentic. Often those who have had a negative experience with therapy in the past have expressed having a new, positive experience in our work together.
If you're feeling ready for a different way of showing up in your life—with more ease and connection—I’d love to hear from you. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if past experiences haven’t felt great. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. Feel free to reach out (email is the best way to reach me) - I'd be happy to connect!
