Welcome! I specialize in working with individuals 14+ who are dealing with chronic illness or relational trauma. I can help you transform this overwhelming stressor into just a part of your life, instead of your whole life, allowing you to experience more calm and connection with yourself and others. Additionally, I work with people navigating difficult family relationships, people pleasing patterns, life transitions, grief, and low self-confidence. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences to support you in better knowing yourself and your needs, allowing change to come from a foundation of self-compassion.
I use somatic based perspectives, including mindfulness and self-compassion to support you in being curious about your thoughts, feelings, and body, and understand your nervous system. We’ll help you find the practices that support you in strengthening the mind-body connection, respond rather than react automatically, and be able to notice what supports you.
You’re feeling overwhelmed, but you no longer have to figure everything out on your own. Together, we can help you recognize and cultivate sources of support while also working to overcome challenges and stressors, creating sustainable change that feels true to you. Let's connect to talk more about how we can partner together.

I primarily use self-compassion and somatic experiencing perspectives to help you build curiosity, empathy, and greater connection to yourself. I will support you in building greater awareness of what's happening in your body and with your emotions. We'll find the tools and practices to help you stay calm and grounded rather than being consumed by current difficulties.
