Are you feeling overwhelmed by trauma, grief, anxiety, chronic pain, or self-doubt? Maybe you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time and aren’t sure how to find relief. You don’t have to go through it alone. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can talk openly, feel truly heard, and begin making sense of what you’ve been carrying. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded, connected, and confident in your life. Reach out to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.
I take a trauma-informed approach and integrate CBT, DBT, somatic therapy, and mindfulness to support recovery and emotional regulation. Together we explore how past experiences shape current patterns while building skills for healthier thinking, stronger boundaries, and improved self-esteem.
If you've spent years feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or like you're working harder than everyone else just to keep up, let's connect. During a free 15-minute consultation, we'll explore what brings you to therapy, what you're looking for in support, and whether my integrative approach feels like the right fit for you!

I often work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and chronic illness or pain. In our first session, we'll explore what has brought you to therapy and begin identifying meaningful short- and long-term goals. Many clients share that they leave our early sessions feeling lighter, more grounded, and hopeful about the path ahead.
