I use an integrative approach that includes things like ERP, EMDR, Attachment Theory and somatic exercises; we’ll work together to figure out what feels right for you.
You’re tired. Tired of intrusive memories. Tired of scanning for danger. Tired of feeling “too much” or somehow never enough. Maybe trauma taught you to be hyper-independent, or your anxiety shows up as self doubt, perfectionism and panic.
You’ve probably read dozens of profiles trying to find the therapist who feels safest, because lets be honest, starting therapy can feel awkward. You’re trusting a stranger to hold all your deepest thoughts. Good news though, we’re human too.
I’m the type of therapist who will lovingly call you out when you need it, while giving you the safety and support you need to dive into the dark stuff.

I use CBT; Solution-Focused; Somatic; and Person-Centered modalities.
Note: I am currently seeing patients at Strength and Light Counseling. To make an appointment, please send an email.
Have you experienced losing someone in a traumatic way? If this has happened to you, you are in the right place. I work with clients, both adults and children, who have experienced traumatic grief related to violence, accidents, suicide, and pregnancy loss. These can be complicated types of grief, but with time and the right supports, healing is possible. I have lived experience with traumatic grief, and it is now my desire to help other survivors to make meaning out of the loss and find joy in their lives again.

I strive to provide a safe, respectful space where individuals feel heard, supported, and understood. My approach is trauma-informed and tailored to the needs of each individual. This may include individual therapy, group therapy, or support groups. The focus is on building insight, regulation, and stability. I believe that with the right support, even the most difficult seasons can shift—that the sun will rise again and the dawn will come.
All of the therapists in our company work together to create a supportive, collaborative environment where individuals feel safe, respected, and able to move forward at their own pace.

My work takes a holistic, person-centered, existential, and trauma-informed approach, combining mindfulness practices, EMDR, Brainspotting, and somatic therapy techniques to facilitate healing of both the mind and body.
You may be carrying experiences that feel heavy, confusing, or difficult to hold. Trauma can shape how we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. It can leave us feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in ways that are hard to explain.
I'm guided by a holistic understanding of healing that recognizes the connection between our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual parts. Trauma can disrupt this natural balance, creating patterns to help us get through painful or overwhelming situations. These responses aren't signs that something's wrong with you, but how your mind and body worked to protect you.

My style is trauma-focused and eclectic, with a background in feminism, narrative and somatic therapies.
Are you a college student struggling with stress, grades or the transition out of school? Are you a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and you want to explore your identity? Are you new to therapy and not really sure what you're doing? I'm your therapist! We're going to focus on building skills, exploring your identity, and learning how to navigate possible neurodivergence. I like to meet you where you're at, take things slow, and empower you to make the change you know you want to make.

I incorporate art, projective art tools, somatic art directives and experiential mindfulness practices into traditional talk therapy.
My ideal client is someone going through a transition of life. These can include career changes, relationship shifts, unexpected losses, college students, childbirth/parenting stages, spiritual exploration...etc. These major life changes, whether planned or unplanned, can cause a feeling of uncertainty and bring up existential questions of life. Feeling lost, depressed, anxious, feelings of what to do next and you just don't want to feel this way anymore!

I solve the patterns that keep people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and disconnected from themselves and the relationships that matter most. You are not broken. You are exhausted and carrying more than most people can see. Anxiety, irritability, burnout, hormone shifts, people-pleasing, and unbalanced dynamics can make it hard to say no or feel like yourself. You want steadiness, clarity, confidence, and connection that feels mutual and safe. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

I'm Geek Therapy trained, and I also use a mix of trauma-informed, holistic, and strength-based therapy with touches of somatic awareness.
You never quite felt like you fit into this world, never checked off the boxes you were forced into, but you still strive to make a difference. Maybe you relate with being a geek, nerd, misfit, or gamer.

I integrate EMDR therapy, somatic techniques, and holistic practices to help clients process difficult experiences, reconnect with their inner resources, and move toward lasting well-being.
Trauma is often stored in both the mind and body & talk therapy alone does not fully address its impact. Through mind-body approaches, I help clients gently explore and process their experiences, release patterns of stress and overwhelm, and develop greater self-awareness, emotional balance, & connection to themselves.

I supports teens and adults (age 14 and above), offering compassionate grief counseling, anxiety therapy, self-compassion practices, and somatic healing to ease trauma.
I understand how heavy life can feel, how anxiety, grief, trauma, and stress can leave you exhausted and overwhelmed. I see your strength, even when you don’t feel strong. You may be carrying depression, OCD, or the weight of past trauma in both mind and body. You want to feel calmer, more connected, and more like yourself again. Together we’ll create a safe, supportive space to release what’s been held inside, ease the burden, and help you move toward healing, balance, and a life that feels lighter.

My work integrates Trauma-Focused CBT, Structural Family Therapy, and somatic approaches, addressing the thoughts connected to your experiences and how those experiences are held in the body.
I specialize in helping adults and couples understand and heal the impact of trauma. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning and capable, yet feel overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or stuck in relationship patterns that don’t make sense. Trauma is not always a single event — it can be a series of experiences that shape how you see yourself and relate to others. These patterns often continue long after the original experiences have passed.

Hello and welcome! I work primarily with adults experiencing emotional challenges. This often looks like depression, anxiety, grief, or trauma. I also work with individuals going through a transition in life, relationships, career, or health status. During a difficult season in life we are more open to learning new skills and perspectives.

You feel deeply — more than most people — and sometimes that sensitivity can feel overwhelming. You want therapy that goes beyond talking in circles, that helps you release what weighs on your body and heart. I’m here to meet you there. Our work won’t ask you to relive painful memories, but instead to gently transform the patterns they left behind. Together, we’ll create a space where you can breathe easier, feel steadier, and grow into the life that feels like yours again. My approach begins with the belief that real healing doesn’t stop at the level of thought.

My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, and physical‑oriented interventions to help clients regulate their nervous system, understand their internal experience, and move toward change.
Many of the men I work with are successful on the outside but privately overwhelmed. They’re disciplined, intelligent, and used to pushing through—yet something in their system isn’t resetting the way it used to. They feel stuck, disconnected, or caught in patterns that no longer match the life they’re trying to build. They want more than symptom relief; they want meaningful, lasting change that helps them feel steady, present, and in control again.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
