Supporting adults and couples navigating stress, burnout, trauma, relationship patterns, and life transitions, with particular attention to how mental, physical, and nervous-system health shape one another. I believe they are inseparable, and that healing happens most fully in connection, not isolation. My goal is to partner with you in positive change: moving beyond functioning and into flourishing, and cultivating joy along the way.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and strengths-based. Using EMDR, ACT, Positive Psychology, and somatic work, we'll process distressing experiences, build resilience, identify relational cycles, and find meaning. As a nutrition coach and fitness instructor, I honor the psyche-soma link and practice compassionate accountability without judgment.

Rather than chasing balance, I help clients build harmony and sustainability in life and work. Beyond the therapy room, I collaborate with organizations on workplace well-being and am developing a whole-person model of care. Reaching out takes courage and can bring up uncertainty. We'll walk through it together and find the rhythm that best suits you.
