Healing is about more than reducing symptoms—it's about helping you reconnect with yourself, your strengths, and the life you want to live. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, grief, chronic pain, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences, navigating current uncertainty, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can become a place to find clarity, resilience, and hope.
As a trauma-focused therapist, I specialize in helping clients heal from experiences that impact emotions, relationships, and nervous systems. I integrate EMDR, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Play Therapy, expressive arts, Gottman Method principles, and somatic approaches to create a personalized treatment plan that honors your unique story.
Taking the first step into therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop practical tools for lasting change, and help you move toward a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentic.
