I believe that therapy should feel like a soft place to land throughout your week, where you feel challenged, uplifted, and deeply understood. I aim to create a safe and affirming space where you feel free to bring your full self, and to explore what’s been weighing on you without needing to filter or perform. I tend to work with artists, creatives, and helper-types who feel inherently sensitive and attuned to the world around them, and are seeking a collaborative space that goes beyond talk therapy and honors their unique stories and needs. My approach integrates EMDR and parts-work within a relational, psychodynamic framework.
Many people I work with are navigating the lingering effects of trauma, whether from recent experiences or longstanding patterns rooted in childhood. Together, we'll explore how the past may still be present, uncover what’s keeping you stuck, and help you reconnect with your creative, curious, and resilient core self.
Through nurturing new insights and practices and bringing compassion to the parts of you that learned to survive, our work can help you find steadiness and clarity, even when life feels uncertain. If you’re ready to explore what’s been holding you back, I’ll meet you with warmth and acceptance every step of the way.
