Are you exhausted by worries, intrusive thoughts, or painful memories? Living with severe anxiety can feel like you’re trapped in your own mind. I offer over 20 years of experience helping clients recover from OCD and co-occuring PTSD and CPTSD. My clients come to me after surviving abuse, sexual violence, or the sudden loss of a loved one. Their anxiety symptoms heightened after a trauma, they struggle with flashbacks, compulsive checking and planning, avoidance, panic attacks, fear of death, dissociation, nightmares, or feelings of unreality; symptoms that can feel overwhelming but are treatable.
My approach combines evidence-based methods like EMDR, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, Somatic Experiencing, and Parts Work, all grounded in an existential and compassionate framework. Importantly, my work is informed not just by training but also by lived experience allowing me to meet my clients with deep empathy and authenticity.
If your OCD symptoms feel out of control or your traumatic stress feels unbearable, you’ve already taken the hardest step by searching for help. You don't have to face this alone. Reach out today for a complimentary consultation (via zoom or phone), visit my website, or send me a message about yourself. We can begin to face it together.

Groups
Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse (Women)
Living with memories of childhood sexual abuse is isolating. You may feel like nobody is able to handle hearing about it. It's important to be part of a community who understands, never judges, and has experienced the same things. If this is how you feel, this virtual group is essential for you. We use a trauma informed lens to foster feelings of safety, and cohesiveness within the group.

Traumatic Loss Grief Group
Have you recently lost someone close to you very suddenly or under traumatic circumstances? Do you feel disoriented, confused, unable to function, or have flashbacks of the loss? Maybe you feel like you're coming in and out of denial, or that you're going back and forth between the stages of grief. You may benefit from the supportive environment of a group. You don't have to be alone in your feelings of loss. The world is a strange and crazy place right now. Reach out for support because sometimes it takes a village.
