You know something needs to change, not because you can't function, but because you're exhausted by the same patterns. The shutdown after a fight. The voice that says it's all your fault. The fear that you're unloveable, unworthy. Like you're seven years old again, even though you're standing in your adult life. You've survived a lot. And some of it is still quietly living in your body, shaping how you love, how you trust, how close you let people get. You've probably tried to think your way out of it. And the patterns keep coming back.
I work with women healing from complex trauma and childhood sexual abuse. My approach is somatic and relational, which means we work with what your body knows, not just what your mind understands. We go slow. We build safety. And we go back to what was missing, so your nervous system can finally learn something new.
This is the kind of work that changes not just what you understand about yourself, but how you actually feel being you. You deserve to feel at home in your body. To trust yourself. To have relationships where you feel truly seen. I offer a free 20-minute consultation. Reach out whenever you're ready.

The heart of my work is undoing aloneness! I bring my full self and attuned presence with you in therapy. A typical session with me begins with a mindful moment to reconnect with yourself and your intention for the session. Together, we will get curious about your inner landscape. Expect a mix of laughter, tears, movement, play, imagery, and meaningful dialogue. Everything is welcome.
