I help people get unstuck. You may understand your problems intellectually, yet still find yourself repeating the same painful patterns—pulled back into old wounds, overthinking, self-criticism, or unhelpful coping mechanisms. Are you exhausted from constantly managing responsibilities while also feeling anxious, resentful, overwhelmed or disconnected? We’ll explore the hidden subconscious beliefs and projections that sabotage change. Then use EMDR, somatic work and IFS to integrate and reinforce the new insights. I am a licensed Psychotherapist (LMHC) with a Master’s degree in Nutrition and over 22 years clinical experience.
I specialize in supporting people living with eating disorders, chronic illness, anxiety, and trauma—but these are just labels. The deeper work is repatterning what keeps you stuck: the thoughts, beliefs, emotional patterns, and trauma responses that continue to govern your behaviors, even when you consciously want something different.
We won’t sugarcoat things. The world isn’t inherently safe. We won’t create affirmations that don’t feel true. Instead, we’ll work toward something more real: trusting yourself to meet challenges, tolerate discomfort, speak your truth, and choose how you want to move forward.
