Do you feel like something isn't working, but you aren't sure why? Maybe you're struggling in a relationship, feeling disconnected from yourself, navigating changes in your family, or simply feeling stuck and can't put your finger on what needs to change. Therapy can be a place to slow down, become curious about what's happening beneath the surface, and to see possibilities that weren't visible before. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating relationship difficulties, life transitions, family conflict, and experiences affecting them in ways they don't yet fully understand. No need to have everything figured out.
We'll work together to understand your experiences, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and discover new ways of relating to yourself and the people around you. As a trauma informed therapist, I offer EMDR. You may carry experiences from the past that have shaped you deeply and we can explore how your past may be influencing your present.
Therapy is an act of bravery. You don't have to know exactly where you're going before you take the first step. During the new moon, the moon is there even when we can't yet see it. My hope is that, together, we can begin to make visible what has been difficult to see and find a path forward that feels authentically yours.

I offer EMDR as a trained EMDR practitioner. Sometimes people carry experiences that have shaped them deeply without ever thinking of those experiences as "trauma" and that's totally okay. EMDR is an effective, research-based practice to help you move beyond what feels stuck, to build your confidence, and to free yourself from limiting beliefs. Please reach out if you are seeking EMDR treatment.
