I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, accepted, and safe enough to be yourself—even the parts you’re not so sure about yet. My style is warm, open, and non-judgmental, with room for humor and lightness alongside deep, meaningful work. I aim to create a space where you can exhale, be real, and explore what’s going on beneath the surface.
I have specialized training in EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS), and I integrate mindfulness, yoga, and compassion-focused therapy into my work. I help adults heal from trauma, navigate perfectionism, and recover from eating disorders by developing a more understanding, trusting relationship with themselves.
Together, we’ll work on helping you better understand your inner world, strengthen self-trust, and relate to yourself with more kindness and clarity. My goal is not to “fix” you, but to help you reconnect with the wisdom and resilience that are already there.

With Internal Family Systems, we may explore how your life experiences & the messages you received growing up have led you to develop ways of thinking and being that no longer serve you. We may get to know the parts of you that are carrying old messages, and we may utilize experiential interventions (mindfulness, reflection, journaling, etc.) to help you create change & achieve your goals.
