You've fallen through life's trap door. Your loved one died, you survived a traumatic event that won't leave your body, or you became a mother and nothing feels right. Your worst fear came true, and it's shocking that everyone else moves on while your world has crumbled. You're terrified, devastated, and alone. You're caught in patterns you don't recognize—living in constant fear, doubting yourself, repeating unhealthy behaviors. You want to reclaim your life, find solid ground, and learn to live meaningfully despite what happened.
I specialize in grief and loss, trauma and PTSD, and perinatal mental health. Using EMDR therapy and trauma-focused approaches, I help you process painful memories and experiences so they no longer control your present. We won't change what happened, but together we'll transform how these experiences affect your daily life, relationships, and sense of self.
I will meet you where you are and guide you through this. We all have the capacity to heal and change. You can learn to find solid ground after crisis and live a fulfilling life even knowing the trap door exists. If you could have figured this out alone, you would have. Call for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we're a good fit.
