Do you feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, depression, overwhelm, or emotional disconnection, like you understand what’s happening, yet something inside still feels unresolved? You may notice parts of you feeling shut down, stuck in survival mode, disconnected from your body, or unsure how to access a deeper sense of calm, meaning, and connection. These experiences often reflect unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, or a nervous system that learned to stay on high alert or collapse. My approach is relational, experiential, and trauma-informed, with a strong focus on somatic therapy and parts work.
I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, nervous system regulation, and attachment-based approaches to help you build safety, deepen self-understanding, and gently come back into connection with yourself and your body. Together, we slow down and explore the parts of you shaped by past experiences, meeting them with curiosity, compassion, and care.
Therapy is collaborative and grounded in relational safety. My work is guided by trust in your system’s innate capacity to heal when given the right conditions for integration and connection. I offer a free 15-minute consultation call to explore whether we’re a good fit. Please feel free to email or call to schedule.
