If you are someone who is wanting to better manage your stress, anxiety, or other symptoms, I would love to help. I primarily work with trauma survivors and athletes, as well with individuals who struggle to regulate their emotions and bodily responses to certain stimuli. I operate through a Polyvagal lens. This lens emphasizes creating safety and connection, helping you shift from survival-based responses to a state of calm and social engagement - enabling deeper healing and emotional resilience. I am also EMDR trained.
I provide individual therapy to address a range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, and athletic performance. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment where techniques that promote awareness of bodily sensations and emotional states are explored. Through this process, you can learn to move through these more fluidly.
I offer a non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences while we work together to develop coping strategies. Whatever it is that you are struggling with, I am here to help you. Your story and voice matter to me, and I am committed to helping you transform your negative thoughts into those of resilience and empowerment.

Pulling from my background as a collegiate athlete, I enjoy exploring motivation, grit, and optimal performance. I work with individuals around entering into a "flow state," or a state of optimal experience arising from intense involvement in an activity that is enjoyable, which can be helpful in different areas of life.

I take a somatic approach in collaborating with clients, viewing experiences through a polyvagal lens. Polyvagal Theory emphasizes the role of the autonomic nervous system in regulating our health and behavior. This view aids in facilitating individuals' understanding of their body's response to stress and trauma.
