You've read the books. You understand your patterns. And somehow you still feel stuck — anxious, exhausted, or running on a kind of empty you can't explain to anyone. Maybe you're the one who holds everything together at work and at home. Maybe your relationships keep following the same script no matter how hard you try to change it. Maybe you've done therapy before and it helped — but something deeper hasn't shifted yet. I work with adults who are ready to go beneath the surface — using EMDR, somatic therapy, and parts work to reach what talk therapy often can't. Real change happens in the body and nervous system, not just the mind
I'm a trauma-informed therapist with a depth-oriented, body-based approach. That means we don't just talk about what's happening — we explore what's driving it at the root, and we work with your nervous system, not around it. My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy (body-based awareness and regulation), IFS and psychodynamic depth psychology.
I understand that your journey is uniquely yours. Your path toward healing and a deeper sense of self-worth is within reach. I invite you to explore what a transformative journey might feel like by booking a free 15-minute Zoom call to explore whether we’re a good fit. You can go to my website to schedule your consultation directly or send me an email.

I work with adults who may be struggling with people-pleasing, codependency patterns, relationship challenges, anxiety, life transitions, or unresolved trauma. During our initial sessions, we'll explore the root causes of what's keeping you stuck and collaborate to create a plan for moving forward. Most of my clients begin to notice a shift in clarity, confidence, and emotional balance.
