Accepting New CLIENTS! Do you feel like you’ve lost yourself? Perhaps you’re carrying the weight of past trauma, navigating the overwhelming transitions of motherhood, or struggling to break free from the grip of substance use. It can feel lonely, frustrating, and at times, impossible to find your way back to a sense of peace and self-acceptance. I want you to know this: you don’t have to face these challenges alone. We’ll work together to heal emotional wounds, rebuild your confidence, and help you find clarity and balance to show up more fully and with a sense of vitality in your life.
I specialize in supporting women & birthing people who are navigating complex issues of trauma, perinatal mental health, or substance use. Whether you’re feeling stuck in patterns of self-doubt, overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood, or want freedom from addiction, my approach is suited to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered with EMDR & IFS.
Reaching out for support is an act of courage, & I’m here to meet you with warmth, understanding, & tools that work. Whether you’re ready to take the next step or just exploring your options, I invite you to connect. Together, we can create a path toward the life you want and deserve. Book with me now by clicking on my website!
