How can I support you in building the life you want? Whether you’re struggling with trauma, addiction, depression, body image issues or relationship challenges, I offer a collaborative and compassionate, holistic, and client-focused approach. It would be my privilege to support you on your healing journey and I invite you to reach out for a brief consultation.
Using parts work or TF-CBT, I try to support clients in applying the mind/body connection to their everyday lives and treatment goals. Improving nervous system regulation skills and awareness from a trauma-informed perspective can be a critical step in discovering your true authenticity. Not for you? Let’s rewrite your story together with narrative therapy.
I employ trauma-focused, relational therapy techniques to support my clients navigating anxiety, depression, and self-image challenges with kindness and clarity. Therapy is never one-size-fits-all. So let’s find what works for you. Together we can work to take small steps that lead to big change—one session at a time.
