Welcome! I'm glad your here. If you’ve found your way to this page, you might be carrying the weight of experiences that are hard to explain—memories that feel fragmented, emotions that feel too big or too far away, or a sense that you’re not fully connected to yourself or the world around you. Maybe you’ve been diagnosed with PTSD, bipolar disorder, or a dissociative disorder like DID or OSDD. Maybe you’ve tried therapy before, even spent time in hospitals, and still feel like no one really saw you.
My approach is rooted in empathy and tailored to meet the unique needs of each person, because I believe healing is a deeply personal journey. Whether you're seeking support for recent trauma or dealing with long-standing dissociative experiences, I offer compassionate therapy aimed at fostering resilience and growth.
Finding the best fitting therapist can be overwhelming and challenging. I'm dedicated to making this as easy as possible. I'd love to hear more about your goals and explore how we can support you. Please feel free to reach out whenever convenient for you. Looking forward to connecting.

Clients often report feeling more grounded, less fragmented, and more in control of their emotions and reactions. With steady work, many find greater self-understanding, better boundaries, more fulfilling relationships, and a sense of peace they hadn't thought possible. You don't have to "have it all together" to start. You just need a safe space and a therapist who gets it.
