Life can feel overwhelming—whether you’re anxious, stressed, unmotivated, or burdened by past experiences. Therapy offers a supportive space to make sense of what you’re carrying and discover a path forward. I provide a warm, welcoming environment where you can feel heard, seen, and understood. Together, we’ll explore practical tools and new perspectives to help you feel more empowered, balanced, and connected to yourself.
I tailor therapy to each person through a collaborative, personalized approach. I use EMDR to support working with trauma and other concerns, and integrate Internal Family Systems to help clients connect with their parts and strengthen their sense of self.
You’re welcome to reach out by email or phone. I’m happy to answer your questions and help you understand what therapy can look like. Getting started can feel intimidating, but it can also open the door to insight and change. I’d love to connect and walk alongside you on that journey.

I work with people dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life stress. In our first sessions, we'll talk about what's been hardest for you, set meaningful goals, and find ways to help you feel more grounded and in control. Many clients start noticing positive changes within the first couple of months with continued progress over time.

I practice EMDR and IFS therapies to address trauma symptoms and decrease distress associated with trauma. I utilize attachment theory in my practice along with a relational approach to address relationship conflicts and challenges. We come into the world wired to attach. Looking through this lens can open doors to understanding our patterns in relationships.
