Do you feel overwhelmed, very self aware, and stuck at the same time? It seems like no matter what you do, you feel disconnected and defeated. It’s hard to get your emotional needs met even though you’re ready to break cycles and live a really amazing life. Whether you experienced childhood trauma, relationship issues, low self esteem or find yourself going through a challenging time right now - I want you to know that long lasting change is possible. It’s common to fall into the trap of minimizing your needs and experiences or intellectualizing your pain and challenges.
No matter how small your “stuff” feels, the way you experience life impacts your confidence, connection, and relationships. Therapy is a space to increase your self awareness, get to the root of the problem, and develop new ways to experience real relief in the present moment. Together, we work to create a life that feels satisfying and fulfilling to you.
Whether you’ve done talk therapy in the past or are interested in trying a trauma-focused therapy, like EMDR, we explore what works for you. As your therapist, I’m empathetic, solution focused and am passionate about helping my clients heal from trauma, perfectionism, anxiety, panic, depression and eating disorders.

I work with individuals looking to heal from anxiety, childhood trauma and eating disorders. I often work with those who have experienced helpful talk therapy and are wanting to go deeper and try a body based approach like EMDR to get unstuck. Many of my clients come to therapy looking to regain self trust, heal from childhood trauma, break cycles and experience deep meaningful relationships.

I take a mind body approach and support my clients in regulating their nervous system. I utilize EMDR, a trauma focused, body based approach that goes beyond talk therapy to reprocess distressing life events. In addition I offer acceptance and commitment therapy which focuses on developing psychological flexibility to deal with life's challenges.
