Constantly bracing for the next crisis or struggling to feel safe—even when you know you are—is an incredibly heavy weight to carry. Trauma and life transitions can often make you feel like you’ve lost your voice and your sense of self. You may notice a lingering sense of unease that won't go away, even when life is stable. If you feel constantly on edge or doubt your own reality, please know these are natural responses to unnatural stress. I support adults, as well as children and adolescents (10+) in navigating these complexities to move beyond survival mode and reconnect with a sense of internal safety that feels sustainable.
Using evidence-based tools like EMDR and CPT can help your mind and body communicate more effectively and increase your ability to face life's challenges without being immediately pulled into a state of panic or shutdown.
Whether it's for you or your child, my goal is to provide a focused, safe, and collaborative space to reclaim your narrative, experience genuine symptom relief, and lasting positive change.

I am trained in EMDR through EMDRIA, and am also trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy. I never push a type of therapy on a client, but am always happy to provide detailed information on what to expect, how the process works, and discuss any questions or concerns you may have. We'll work together to ensure you are comfortable with my therapeutic approach in sessions!
