You’ve done the work — therapy, self-help, coping skills — yet the same patterns keep looping. Anxiety, overthinking, or old trauma still hijack your peace and relationships. You hold it together on the outside but feel drained, disconnected, or never “enough” inside. You’re tired of managing instead of healing. You want relief you can feel — calm in your body, confidence in your choices, and relationships that finally feel safe. You’re ready for real change that lasts.
I use EMDR, Brainspotting, and trauma-focused intensives to help adults heal anxiety, PTSD, and relationship wounds at their core. These brain-based methods go beyond talk, releasing old patterns stored in the body. Our work helps you feel calmer, more confident, and genuinely free to live, not just cope.
Change is possible, even if it hasn’t worked before. You don’t have to carry this alone or keep managing pain that can be healed. Together, we’ll work at the depth needed for real relief — so you can feel lighter, calmer, and more at ease in your own skin. When you’re ready, I’m here to help you begin.

I help adults facing anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. In our early sessions, we'll clarify what's unresolved and where it began. Using EMDR, we'll target those roots for resolution. You can expect deep, lasting change—more peace, confidence, and authentic connection in daily life.

If you are looking for an authentic, warm and compassionate couples therapist, I highly recommend Fran. As a colleague, I can say that her passion for her work shines through in her approach. She's authentic and really cares about those she works with.

I recommend Fran highly for the skills she brings to couples who are struggling. What I love most about Fean's work is how she will also work with one partner in a relationship, even if the other is ambivalent about therapy, to start the healing process.

If talk therapy hasn't brought the relief you want, EMDR can help. You'll process stuck memories using eye movements or tapping, allowing your brain to heal naturally. You stay in control, and we go at your pace. EMDR is a focused, powerful, and often more effective way to feel better.
