My work draws on Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Hakomi, a mindful, somatic therapy.
You learned early that your value was in being kind, caring, and easy. And you got good at it. So good that saying no, taking up space, or letting someone down still sends a particular kind of dread through your body before you have even decided what to do. You don't want to give up these qualities entirely, but they're no longer working for you.
You probably already know yourself well. You have the insight. You know where it comes from. But something deeper hasn't shifted yet, and you're starting to wonder if talking about it is actually going to be enough.

In my practice, I use EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, Internal Family Systems and Somatic Intervention and I draw from other evidence-based methods.
Because counseling can sometimes be a daunting experience, I aim to put my clients at ease from the first moment. Life can be difficult to navigate. We accumulate invisible scars and wounds over time. When the tools and thoughts that we use to cope with life's changes and challenges are out dated, they can leave us feeling depressed, fearful, or overwhelmed. I work collaboratively with my clients to fully understand their issues and to develop treatment strategies that address their concerns in an open, safe, and understanding environment.

I believe therapy should feel like a soft place to land throughout your week, where you feel supported, gently challenged, and deeply understood. I aim to create a safe, affirming, and collaborative space where you can show up as your full self without needing to filter, perform, or have it all figured out. I tend to work with artists, creatives, and helper-types who are highly sensitive, attuned, and often navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, or the lingering effects of trauma, and who are seeking a depth-oriented therapy that goes beyond talk therapy and honors their inner world and lived experience.
