Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! I am a licensed therapist who works with adults in individual therapy, offering a warm, grounded, and collaborative space for healing and growth. I bring advanced training and specialized experience to my work, including EMDR therapy, Intensive perinatal mental health training and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
These approaches allow me to tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs, whether you’re seeking support through pregnancy or postpartum, navigating the impact of past trauma, or working to manage overwhelming emotions.
In addition to evidence-based modalities, I enjoy incorporating somatic techniques and self-compassion practices to help clients reconnect with their bodies, build emotional resilience, and cultivate a kinder internal world. My goal is to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change!
