Let's start with an uncomfortable question: If you know exactly what's not working in your life, why are you still doing it? Don't worry—you don't need to answer that right now. But it's probably one reason you're here. Maybe you've always felt a little different—the outsider, the black sheep, or the person who never quite fit the mold. Maybe you're stuck in the same relationship patterns, carrying around old wounds, or feeling trapped by reactions that don't make sense. I specialize in trauma, relationship struggles, and helping thoughtful, unconventional people make sense of what feels impossible.
I believe therapy should create meaningful movement and lasting change, not endless discussion about the same problems. Real growth happens through action. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and body-based approaches to help you process painful experiences, regulate your nervous system, and build a life that feels more authentic.
Together, we'll strengthen your ability to tolerate discomfort, navigate relationships more effectively, and move toward the person you want to become. If you're ready to do the work, I'm here to help. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation.
