Many people don’t realize their symptoms like anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck are rooted in unresolved trauma. I help clients get to the root of their pain using EMDR (certified), EMDR 2.0, the Four Blinks Flash technique, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). These modalities work well together to gently and effectively process trauma, not just manage symptoms.
I also provide ADHD-informed care and have extensive experience working within the LGBTQ+ community. I myself am neurodivergent (ADHD) and identify as a lesbian. My approach is relational and real—I show up as my full self so you feel safe to do the same. I’m not a blank slate therapist, and I believe healing happens in an authentic, collaborative space.
If you’re ready to feel more calm, connected, and in control, reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. Email or text is the best way to get in touch—I’d love to hear from you.
