Feeling trapped in anxious thoughts or fear-driven patterns? You’re not broken or alone. I help women struggling with anxiety, CPTSD due to abusive relationships, and OCD reconnect with themselves and reclaim their lives. For many, fear developed in unsafe or controlling relationships. Therapy with me is a supportive place to heal and move forward.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I specialize in gold-standard treatment for OCD, anxiety, and CPTSD, including ERP, while adapting therapy to your pace and needs. Together, we retrain fear-driven patterns so you can build confidence, resilience, and freedom.
I work with women navigating anxiety, OCD, and CPTSD, often shaped by trauma or emotionally harmful relationships. Many feel hypervigilant, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode. I help clients build safety, process trauma, strengthen boundaries, and move toward a life rooted in self-trust and meaning.

My communication style is warm, empowering, and supportive, while also being clear and directive when helpful. I encourage practicing skills and homework between sessions to build confidence and momentum. When appropriate, I bring play and gentle humor into our work, as laughter can be deeply healing.
