Are you looking for a safe space to feel seen, be heard, and validated with compassion and curiosity? Are you looking to feel deeper connection and sense of meaning in your life and in your relationships? You don't have to go through this alone. Together, we can explore what’s happening with presence, move through obstacles with care, gain access to updated relational models that serve your highest potential, and uncover deeper meaning in your life. Healing, connection, and real growth is possible.
I provide a safe environment for your process to unfold. Having survived a traumatic childhood, I can help you rewire dysfunctional family patterns and choose new ways to relate with your loved ones and the world. My work is rooted in Gestalt and somatic therapy to help you feel safe and at home in your body.
Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, relational challenges, trauma, high sensitivity or a desire for deeper self-understanding, I offer a warm, engaged, + attuned space where your healing process is met with curiosity and care. I know it can hard to reach out for help sometimes, way to go taking this first big step. Let's keep going.

I work with clients who may be struggling with the effects of developmental trauma and attachment style issues. I help clients gain awareness of how they meet themselves in the moment and relationally. In our initial sessions, we dive deeply into presenting issues and collaborate to make a plan for moving forward. Through the Gestalt therapy process, clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms.

I use Gestalt Therapy, Somatic, and Internal Family Systems Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and discuss goals moving forward. Through our work together, we will focus on how you are relating to the here and now in your life, use somatic tools for nervous system regulation, and look at relational patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
