When relationships feel intense, distant, or unpredictable, your nervous system adapts. You may find yourself overthinking, shutting down, pulling away, or feeling like you’re “too much.” What once helped you cope may now be creating the very disconnection you’re longing to change. Therapy is where we slow that cycle down and create something steadier. Many of the struggles that bring people to therapy — anxiety, conflict, betrayal, anger, emotional distance, or persistent self-criticism — are rooted in attachment patterns formed early in life. Together, we make sense of them in a way that helps you feel safer and more regulated.

I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Brainspotting, Experiential approaches, and DBT skills. Each session is tailored to your stage of life, personality, and goals. Therapy is a collaborative approach between us designed for you.

If you’re ready to better understand your patterns, strengthen your relationships, and build a deeper sense of security, I work with both individuals and couples to create meaningful change, and I would be honored to walk alongside you.

I work with clients who often feel stuck, struggling with mood regulation related to anxiety and/or depression, unresolved trauma and relationship strain. I provide therapy that is steady, relational, and direct. I am warm and engaged, and I will also gently challenge you when needed. In our work, we explore your story with clarity and compassion & identify patterns that no longer serve you.

I enjoy using modalities which access both top-down and bottom-up processing in the brain. These different modalities can help you learn to regulate your nervous system, explore emotions in your body, understand these emotions on a deeper level, and explore your internal working model (how you see yourself, others and your relationships).
