If you are struggling with the effects of trauma, grief, major life transitions, or overwhelming emotions, you do not have to face this alone. Traumatic experiences-whether recent or from childhood-can impact how you think, feel, and relate to others, but it does not define who you are or your capacity for healing. I can help you on this journey. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing trauma related symptoms, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I am trauma informed and certified in CBT, TF-CBT, EMDR, and specialized training in Perinatal/Postpartum mental health care.

When life feels completely overwhelming, it’s hard to even understand what the real problem is. You just know you’re exhausted. You find yourself snapping at loved ones, surviving sleepless nights, emotional eating, or swinging between intense irritability and total numbness. Many of your decisions feel driven by a deep, underlying fear. You’ve tried everything to fix it—maybe you’ve even experienced inpatient care—yet the heavy patterns keep repeating. It feels unfair, like you're carrying a weight that doesn't belong to you. You aren't crazy for feeling stuck; you are likely holding onto generational cycles that no longer serve.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. My role is to meet you where you are and help you make sense of what you’re feeling without judgment. I enjoy working with children, teens, adults, elders, and families who are navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, anger, communication challenges, and life transitions. Many clients come in feeling stuck overthinking, shutting down, reacting quickly, or struggling to express themselves in a way that feels heard and respected. Together, we slow things down, begin to understand unhealthy patterns.
