Are you constantly overthinking, overwhelmed by negative thoughts, or feeling unsure of who you are anymore? Maybe you struggle with setting boundaries or prioritizing your needs in relationships. You may feel disconnected from your voice, stuck in old patterns, or like you've lost touch with your sense of self. These emotions can leave you feeling alone, exhausted, and unsure where to turn. One thing is clear: you’re ready for some relief. You're seeking deeper insight into yourself and your past experiences. You want to break free from cycles that no longer serve you—and begin creating new, empowered ways of being.
My approach is compassionate & collaborative using a holistic, trauma-informed lens. I help you process painful memories, build coping skills, and gain clarity. I offer EMDR, Part Works, & Somatic Experiencing to support nervous system regulation and emotional healing.
My goal is to create a safe, affirming space where you can be open, vulnerable, and supported as you grow. As your therapist, I’ll walk with you—co-piloting your healing journey with compassion, insight, and authenticity. Ready to begin? Schedule your free 15-minute consultation on my website and take the first step.

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, trauma, or relationships. Treatment often includes processing past experiences, learning emotional regulation skills, building healthy boundaries, and exploring identity. You can expect greater self-awareness, improved relationships, and a stronger sense of self as you begin to heal and grow.
