I opened Transforward Care in 2019 to create a space where people can find healing, authenticity, and balance holistically. My work integrates trauma-focused clinical hypnosis, EMDR therapy, parts therapy, and somatic practices supporting healing holistically, focusing on subconscious processing, nervous system regulation, and trauma recovery. Together, we explore your patterns and who you are underneath it all, building practices that support integration and growth beyond symptoms or past experiences. Our work is designed to be short-term, experiential, and transformative, focused on deep shifts rather than ongoing talk therapy.

Hello! I am so glad you have found your way here.

You may look like you’re holding everything together while privately feeling anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted, disconnected, or stuck. Perhaps trauma, difficult relationships, parenting stress, depression, or a major life change has made it harder to feel like yourself. We work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families who want more than temporary relief. They want to understand what’s happening, heal what’s underneath it, and create meaningful change.

I use EMDR and clinical hypnotherapy to work where patterns actually live: in body responses, specific memories, and beliefs like “I’m not enough” that run beneath conscious thought.
You’re good at what you do, and you can already name the pattern that’s quietly capping it: the hesitation before you speak up, the over-functioning, the way you handle conflict, the place you keep getting stuck at work or in your relationships. Maybe it traces to a specific event, maybe not. You know what’s yours to change and what isn’t, and you’re done managing around this one. You want to deal with it directly. The insight is already there. What you need now is a way to change the response itself.

Relational and attachment- focused therapist: Since 2014 I’ve been supporting individuals and couples, in their most complex and heartbreaking losses: depression, anxiety, change, grief, and feelings that seem impossible to digest. My approach is deeply relational, experiential, structured, and flexible. I bring in IFS, Hakomi, and Katamine-Assisted-Psychotherapy (KAP) to reach what talk alone can't. We'll name patterns that keep you looping, and work with a combination of tools, somatic, psychedelic, non-ordinary states, contemplative or cognitive, that allow you to metabolize what needs to be felt for real change to occur.

I use hypnotherapy, IFS, EMDR, & somatic approaches for deep healing & rapid transformation.
Exhausted by your loud inner critic? Overwhelmed by your never-ending to-do list? Despite appearing to have your sh!t together, internally, you may feel like a scattered fraud, cosplaying as a human.

Through hypnosis and hypnotherapy techniques, I assist clients with improving relationships, changing unwanted habits, letting go of fears, phobias, and anxious feelings, increasing their self-esteem, and helping them create a happy and fulfilling life.
Believe it or not, you've experienced hypnosis if you've ever been absorbed in a book, movie, or day dreamed. This is because hypnosis is a natural, yet altered state of mind where the conscious mind is relaxed, giving direct access to the subconscious mind.

As a practicing depth psychologist, I primarily utilize techiniques such as Jungian Analysis, Art Therapy, Hypnotherapy, Freudian, and Vedic Astrology to access the underlying, often unconscious, intrapsychic conflicts that cause suffering in the human condition.

I give you tools and insight to heal old wounds that hold you back from experiencing the purpose, meaning, pleasure, and love you are seeking. Together, we will address the intrapsychic conflicts and longings of the soul and body. Licensed in WI and NC.

People often think psychotherapy is only for crises. However research shows that therapy is one of the best investments you can make for life satisfaction and growth. In addition to therapy are other modalities that support healing and growth. Some of these holistic wellness tools include exercise, mindfulness, tai chi and yoga. I have a rich background in the application of mindfulness to promote healing and growth, and have experience integrating tools such as Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, DBT, CBT, Hypnosis and EMDR. I also find authenticity and humor essential for healing and use both liberally.

HypnoTherapy
How does hypnotherapy work?
Hypnotherapy works by using guided hypnosis to help you reach a state of focus and concentration through mental imagery and soothing verbal repetition. The state is somewhat like being absorbed in a book, a movie, or your own thoughts. You are not under a therapist’s “control,” but they can help you relax and turn your attention inward to discover the resources to achieve behavior change or better manage psychological concerns. Therapy sessions may involve guiding you through recognizing a problem, releasing problematic thoughts about it, and considering and accepting more productive alternatives before returning to normal awareness. Hypnotherapy is typically used by a therapist along with traditional forms of talk therapy. Eventually, your therapist can help you learn hypnotherapy techniques yourself so you can establish a stronger sense of control on your own in stressful or challenging moments.
Is hypnotherapy the same as hypnosis?
Hypnotherapy, which is sometimes called hypnotic suggestion, is a therapeutic technique in which a therapist uses hypnosis to help patients. It is not the kind of hypnosis portrayed in stage shows, or in movies or on television. You will not be unconscious or asleep during hypnotherapy, you will not lose control of yourself, your thoughts, or your free will, and you will be able to fully recall your experience. And while you will hear your therapist’s suggestions, it is always up to you to decide whether to act on them. Hypnosis by a trained mental-health professional is not a form of mind control, which is impossible to achieve anyway.
Can everyone be hypnotized?
The most common challenge of hypnotherapy is that as many as one in four people cannot be hypnotized. Brain imaging has confirmed differences in patterns of brain connectivity between those who respond to hypnotism and those who do not. Other people who could potentially be hypnotized may not respond to the technique because of their skepticism or resistance to entering a hypnotic state. If a therapist’s “post-hypnotic suggestion” is effective, it’s because they are suggesting something you want to achieve.
Does hypnotherapy work?
Through hypnotherapy, you can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. Like other talk therapy techniques, when hypnotherapy succeeds, it’s a case of mind over matter. Effective hypnotherapy involves self-healing because you access resources you need to change inside of yourself and learn how to tap into them whenever you need. Hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective therapy for anxiety, phobias, stress, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder, sexual dysfunction, and undesirable behaviors like smoking. It can be used to help improve sleep or to address relationship challenges, and to aid with pain management, digestive disorders, skin conditions, and the gastrointestinal side effects of pregnancy or chemotherapy.
