You're the one others count on — the helper, caregiver, healthcare worker, or crisis responder. Constantly caring for everyone else can leave you exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from yourself. If you're struggling with burnout, compassion fatigue, anxiety, or chronic stress, you don't have to carry it alone. Together, we'll create space for your healing, develop practical coping strategies, reconnect with your strengths, and help you feel more balanced, present, and fulfilled in both your personal and professional life. You deserve the same care and compassion you so freely give to others.
As a nurse turned counselor, I’ve seen and understand the toll caregiving, trauma, grief, and chronic stress can have on your well-being. Drawing from training in EMDR, DBT, and somatic practices, I provide compassionate, practical support to help you process difficult experiences, build resilience, and reconnect with yourself.
I believe everyone deserves access to safe, compassionate, and affirming care. No matter your background, identity, beliefs, or life experiences, you deserve a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. If you're ready to invest in your healing and well-being, I'd be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.

I work with clients at their own pace as we talk about what you are struggling with. Our initial sessions include getting to know each other, while we collaborate on creating a therapeutic plan moving forward. Therapy is like running- we go at the pace that makes sense for your body and mind..

Using EMDR, DBT, somatic practices, and person-centered therapy, I provide a supportive space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin healing. Together, we'll process difficult experiences, navigate stress and burnout, build effective coping skills, and develop a greater sense of balance, resilience, and self-compassion.
