I understand it takes a lot to make the first step in seeking help. If you are here, I believe you have shown great courage to engage in deeper self-exploration and make sense of your life in a new way. Right now, you may feel scared to share the truest parts of you with others. When that fear shows up, our bodies might tense or shrink; we might want to hide, limit our choices, or push people away—especially when we’re still carrying the weight of painful memories from the past. Similarly, when children struggle to trust adults in their lives and feel unsafe in their bodies, we see big, baffling behaviors.
I embody the idea that healing happens through changes in relational dynamics rather than fixing the "bad person" in the relationship. At the same time, I specialize in trauma-informed care using Somatic Experiential Play Therapy and Brainspotting to provide extra support for the individual whose symptoms signal that "we can do better in this relationship".
Hardship does leave a mark on our bodies and our minds, but healing is possible. I am not here to "fix" you, your spouse or your child. I am here to hold and contain the unspeakable feelings and experiences and be a witness to your growth in resilience as you find the strength and wisdom to support your loved ones as well.

I bond well with young children and teens through creative play-based interventions. When I work with children, I also engage with parents in their children's journey of healing. I am also trained in Brainspotting to provide deeper, more effective therapeutic care to everyone and anyone who has encountered challenging life experiences and feels stuck with moving past these difficult events.
