They’ve been through some shit...maybe trauma, maybe just life kicking them in the teeth on repeat. They’re tired of holding it together, tired of therapists who just nod and ask about feelings while everything still feels like it’s on fire. They want to feel something other than numb, angry, or anxious. They want clarity, peace, sleep, and a fucking break. Not forever therapy. Not fluff. Just someone real who can help them untangle the mess without making them feel like a diagnosis with legs.
This isn’t “tell me how that makes you feel” therapy. I specialize in focused, intensive work that cuts through the noise. EMDR, somatic therapy, CBT...done my way, which means we’re getting into it. Not surface-level. Not forever. Just the stuff that actually changes you. Think of it like ripping the band-aid off your nervous system…carefully.
I’m not everyone’s flavor...and that’s the point. I’m not here to play therapist dress-up or nod for an hour. If you want someone real, who swears a little, cuts through the noise, and actually gives a shit, reach out. Worst case? You’ll leave with more than a coloring sheet and deep breathing handout.

I don't take insurance because it's a system that often puts profit before people. I charge a flat fee that covers the full scope of what I do, not just the time we're face to face. It keeps things simple, transparent, and focused on what actually helps you.

I've been doing this work since 2017; schools, sports, crisis, chaos. Now I do real therapy, one-on-one, with people who are sick of surface-level shit. EMDR, somatic work, deep dives only. No bullshit. No bobblehead nodding. Just one human that cares about whatever you bring to the table.

I help with trauma, anxiety, rage, dissociation, perfectionism, and all the messy human stuff under the surface. We'll use EMDR, somatic work, and parts work to get real results, not just talk in circles. Less reactivity, better boundaries, fewer shutdowns. No fluff. No bullshit. Just therapy that actually works.

Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Coaching. I use EMDR, somatic work, and parts work, because they actually do shit. This isn't talk-it-out-and-hope-for-the-best therapy. We dig into the root, not just the noise. You'll feel stuff move. You'll leave sessions different. It's weird, intense, and way more effective than nodding for 50 minutes.
