When the weight of past trauma lingers, it can show up in every part of life—physical tension, mood swings, chronic stress, identity struggles, relationship patterns that feel impossible to break. Maybe you've tried self-help books, coaches, or therapy before, but they felt like just another polite conversation or useful information that doesn't seem to actually spark change.

This is where I come in. With over 13 years of experience in a variety of approaches, I integrate Eastern philosophies with cutting-edge Western modalities to help you untangle where you're stuck. Together, we’ll break through the barriers, rework patterns that no longer serve you, and chart a clear path toward healing and growth.

I don’t believe in problems—only puzzles waiting to be solved. And you don’t have to solve them alone. In our sessions, you’ll also have the support of Georgia, our therapy dog, who brings some extra comfort and ease to the process. Real transformation happens through connection, not just information. There is hope, and I’d be honored to guide you there.

I work heavily with those experiencing effects of trauma, going through faith transition/exploration, and/or running a business. After assessing your background, goals, and needs, we'll make a plan specific for you. Typically, my clients report noticeable improvement within 90 days. Trauma work and faith transition require deeper work over a longer period of time however.
