My jam is working with people who, because of complex trauma and emotional wounds, don't feel real or complete all the time. They're trying their best but can't seem to figure things out. Or, they check all the boxes, work harder than everyone around them, and still feel hollow. I work with those who feel chronic emptiness, disconnect from others and self, incomplete in their identity, and burned out from extended overfunctioning. I use a combination of neurobiological engineering and sorcery (just kidding on the sorcery bit). If you need that, my contact information is available.
I help you make sense of the patterns shaping your experience—often ones you haven’t had words for. Together, we shift you from reacting to your story to actively shaping it. This isn’t just about support. It’s about helping something finally move.
I work with complex trauma. If that’s what brings you here, you’ll be heard and understood. Your reactions make sense in context. You’re not crazy, and your story isn’t too much—it deserves to be known, not carried alone.

I mainly work with complex trauma and attachment wounds. This can include emotional neglect, repeated relational injuries, grief, family-of-origin wounds, spiritual or identity-related pain, chronic shame, dissociation, and the sense that you are "too much," "not enough," or never fully safe. I also offer EMDR intensives for clients who are a good fit for focused, extended trauma work.

My primary modality is EMDR, integrated with attachment-focused therapy, interpersonal neurobiology, ACT, DBT skills, and relational work. I do not believe trauma work should be rushed or reduced to a technique. The goal is to help your system build enough capacity to approach what has been avoided, stuck, or overwhelming.
