Do you feel stuck in old patterns that keep pulling you back? Are you carrying the weight of old beliefs, experiences, or unprocessed pain? Maybe a part of you wants to face what you’ve been holding, but it feels too heavy to navigate alone. I work with individuals seeking something deeper than talk therapy—those who are ready to dive deep into what their bodies are holding and find lasting inner freedom. Together, we’ll nurture a felt sense of safety, soothe your nervous system, and reconnect you to your own inner resources. We'll move through pain that's been holding you back at your pace and make space for something new to grow.
I work with individuals who have tried a lot of therapy, and are ready for something honest, deep, and effective. I'm trained in Sensorimotor (somatic) Psychotherapy and EMDR and I help you gently explore what your body has been carrying, tend to old attachment wounds, and cultivate the safety, softness, and nourishment your system has been longing for.
As a specialist in somatic therapy, trauma, and attachment, I'll walk alongside you as you we gently turn inward and process the pain that’s been shaping your life. You don’t have to allow your past to continue to control you, and you don’t have to heal alone. Send me a message to set up a free consultation—I'm so looking forward to connecting with you.
