I am currently accepting new clients. I enjoy working with teens and adults who feel overwhelmed by what’s going on internally or are tired of trying to hold everything together on their own. You might be working through anxiety, relationship stress, wounds from past experiences, or just feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t helping anymore. Whether you’re here to find healing, growth in your self-esteem, or support as you figure things out, I’m here to walk alongside you as you explore, heal, and grow.
Caring for your whole self can feel hard and intimidating. I focus on building a strong, healthy connection where you feel safe to address the stuff you struggle with most. I’m trained in EMDR and use IFS-informed, parts-based approaches to help you process what’s coming up and feel more grounded.
Taking that first step can feel hard, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. If you’re wanting a space where you can be seen, understood, and start to sort through what’s going on, we can begin there, together. If you’ve made it this far, you’re probably ready to start figuring things out.
