Waitlist for new clients
Hi all and congratulations on taking the courageous step toward healing. I am a dedicated trauma therapist with a specialized focus on attachment wounds, complex relational trauma, and processing family dynamics across the lifespan. My person-centered approach allows us to delve into deep-seated patterns that often underpin trauma responses and impact self-worth and the ability to maintain healthy relationships. I believe that trauma and life stressors affect both the brain and body. For deep healing to occur, we must first connect with ourselves, develop positive coping skills, and attune to our nervous system.

As a psychologist, I work collaboratively to build deeper self-understanding, loosen patterns that no longer serve, and move toward a more meaningful and values-aligned life. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—one in which you feel safe bringing your full self into the room while we work together toward observable, sustainable change. Together, we look at how current concerns are shaped by relationships, life context, and past experiences, while also developing practical skills to manage emotions, respond differently to stress, and increase psychological flexibility.

I use an eclectic approach of CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, person-centered therapy, and humor when appropriate to help clients make desired gains and reach their goals.
Everyone has unique challenges they experience as they move through life. Most of us need help at some point to address stress from work, relationships, unexpected changes, and feeling overwhelmed or out of control. Sorting this out on our own brings an additional challenge and seeking the help of a counselor can be daunting. Congratulations on taking the brave first step to address whatever it may be that has you feeling stuck or is keeping you from being the best version of yourself.
