Waitlist for new clients
I offer an integration of somatic work, EMDR and parts work modalities.
Ever catch yourself saying, “This isn’t like me” or “I’m just not feeling like myself lately?” If you are struggling to manage emotions, identify and establish boundaries or find yourself overthinking, you could find yourself with little to no energy to pour in to what matters most. With the right support, you can redirect your energy to serve you and (re)connect with what is important to you.

Our sessions use a tailored blend of EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, somatic, and psychedelic therapy (when appropriate).
Are you struggling with self-confidence? Do you second-guess and shrink yourself in relationships? Find yourself upset "for no reason" often? You’re a hard worker, you use your logic, but still question your worth, feeling disconnected and powerless. Maybe you’re struggling with grief and loss, or coping with the chaos of a past or recent trauma. It’s all overwhelming, and you’re ready for things to get better. You’re ready to find the clarity you know is there. I want to help you get there.

My life’s greatest passion is to study the complexity of the mind/consciousness and human suffering in order to find better ways to alleviate the pain that so many suffer. However, the variety and extent of pain that many people experience on a daily basis is, very often, far beyond the scope of a human psyche to handle. Over 8 years in the fields of trauma therapy and recovery, I am offering my clients my knowledge and experience in handling the pain of trauma of any kind, be it of depression or anxiety, PTSD/CPTSD, family or relationship issues, or abuse and neglect. Trauma has many faces, but healing has one - you happy face.

Why does it feel like you’re living for everyone but yourself? Your family relies on you for everything from dinner plans to school projects. You take on extra assignments at work even when your plate is overflowing. Friends ask you for favors, and you can’t say no. You wish there was a way to create time for yourself, but you hate the idea of letting anyone down. So you keep pushing through. And no matter how hard you work, there’s still a voice in your head telling you it’s not enough. Fun is nonexistent, and you can’t remember the last time you did anything for yourself. You can’t go on like this, but change feels hopeless.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
