You may be someone who thinks deeply about your life and understands where your patterns come from, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. Maybe you’re constantly in your head, have difficulty slowing down, carry tension in your body, or notice yourself repeating patterns in relationships, boundaries, or the way you respond to stress. You may have tried traditional talk therapy and gained insight, but still feel like something hasn’t fully shifted. If you’re longing to feel more grounded, connected, and at home in yourself, therapy can offer a different kind of experience.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and embodied. I integrate Somatic Experiencing (SE), Neurosomatic Integration (NSI), mindfulness, and nervous system tools to help you understand your body's patterns, gently shift stress responses, and develop greater regulation, connection, and self-trust.
You don’t have to keep pushing through, overthinking, or trying to figure everything out on your own. There is often a reason your mind and body respond the way they do. Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel seen, reconnect with yourself, and develop greater self-trust.

I focus on nervous system regulation through Somatic Experience and Neurosomatic tools. During our first few sessions, we will identify your window of tolerance, start to broaden it, and find safety in your body. I carefully observe your nervous system and let it lead where the body needs to go, very gently and carefully.
