No waitlist- get started today! Do you find it difficult to get through daily tasks? Gen Z + Millennials are feeling anxious about having healthy relationships, leveling up in their careers, and living full lives. I believe motivated adults and couples can meaningfully change when they are empowered and heard. I start by listening to your story, including needs and present challenges. I help by creating a tailored approach that fits you. Your plan gets you anchored and moving with purpose, clarity, and confidence. For eager adults, intensives (or longer sessions) get you in the therapeutic process faster to jumpstart your healing.
I offer cognitive- and body-based exercises to help you stay grounded and present, meaning I can help reconnect your mind with your body. I foster your sense of feeling understood and seen. Moreover, I enable you to achieve wellness. You will learn coping/relaxation strategies, heal from unresolved trauma, and work through a loss with meticulous care.
My priorities are simple- listen and understand first, help second. I show up as authentic, attentive, and committed within a nurturing space. I also weave in humor and lightness and foster a sense of calm and hope. I am ready to hold space for your vulnerabilities and truths. Book your free consultation online today, and let's take the first step, together.

Once we have a mutual understanding of your concerns and goals, we will decide together the best route and identify the approach that works for your needs and abilities. I put together a treatment plan specific to you for approval. For trauma, I exclusively use EMDR with somatic/body-based work. I weave in mindfulness techniques with talk therapy to help clients build long-term health benefits.
