My ideal client is insightful and ready for change, even if they feel stuck or overwhelmed. They may struggle with anxiety, identity, relationship issues, trauma, or life transitions. They want to understand themselves more deeply, break old patterns, and build a life that feels more authentic and aligned. They’re seeking both support and tools—someone who can meet them with compassion, flexibility, and real strategies for growth.
I offer a warm, collaborative space where I blend evidence-based approaches like EMDR, Somatic Therapy, CBT, DBT and ART to support healing and growth. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship issues—tailoring therapy to meet your unique needs and help you move forward with clarity and confidence. Therapy Intensives offered.
You don’t have to go through this alone. Whatever you’re carrying, there’s space for it here. Together, we can work toward understanding, healing, and meaningful change. If you’re ready to take that next step, I’d be honored to walk with you.

I help clients who are carrying the weight of trauma, anxiety, or burnout. In our work together, we'll identify the root patterns that keep you feeling stuck and use EMDR, CBT, and/or somatic strategies to shift them. Treatment often includes practical tools for regulation, deeper trauma processing, and support in rebuilding trust in yourself and your relationships.
