My clients are usually people with spirits that feel heavy from carrying too much for too long—trauma, identity confusion, self-doubt, old wounds that still echo. They’re craving clarity, healing, and a deeper sense of self. They want to feel aligned, seen, and grounded in their truth. I also advocate for firm boundaries—the refined art of saying “no.” Life should be lived on our own terms, but we must remain open to deep and meaningful connections.
I blend EMDR, somatic work, meditation, and narrative therapy to help you heal at the root—body, mind, and soul. Whether it’s trauma, identity, or self-worth, I offer a space to reconnect with your intuition, rewrite your story, and align with who you’re truly here to be. Life can be good, even when it’s not; I would love to show you how.
If your soul feels tired, but you know you’re meant for more, you’re not alone. If you’re overwhelmed by world events, then let us find peace, together. This is sacred work—healing old wounds, reclaiming your voice, and aligning with who you’re here to be. If you’re ready to reconnect with your truth, your intuition, your purpose—I’m here to guide you.

I practice Narrative Therapy because it is a mode of treatment that respects the autonomy of the client; we go where you want to go. I utilize narrative reframing and apply gentle challenges to help clients grow. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR to help deal with stuck traumas. I also teach meditation and somatic techniques to help clients regulate their overactive nervous systems.
