Sometimes traditional talk therapy isn't enough. I specialize in working with writers, artists, therapists, and caregivers to gently explore protective and wounded parts, release shame, and foster a deeper sense of inner harmony. Many clients find deeper healing through a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS), relational, and trauma-informed therapy. These approaches are transformative, allowing for an embodied sense of self-acceptance, the release of long-held pain, and meaningful inner change. Book a complimentary consultation to explore working together. I look forward to connecting!
I'm passionate about working folks to transform shame, pain, and the impact(s) of trauma. Through parts-work and compassionate inquiry, I help you explore and understand parts of yourself that may be stuck in past trauma or protecting you. We can integrate these parts, heal old wounds, and create space for greater self-compassion, clarity, and confidence.
I understand how challenging it can be to face old wounds, especially when they impact your relationships or sense of self. You don’t have to carry these burdens alone. I’m here to support you in navigating these struggles with compassion and understanding. If you're ready to begin, reach out—I’d love to connect and explore how we can work together.

I'm passionate about helping clients release shame and guilt, often rooted in childhood trauma. This trauma can lock young parts in shame, while protectors take on the critical voice to avoid pain. As a fellow artist, I enjoy integrating experimental and existential ideas into therapy. I offer a safe, welcoming space for neurodiverse, queer, and BIPOC clients.

As a Certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapist, I primarily use this framework, integrating somatic modalities, existential and relational psychotherapy, and trauma-informed approaches. Sessions typically include a check-in, a guided IFS portion, and somatic awareness, leading to greater self-understanding, compassion, and meaningful change.
