I provide a sanctuary for deep, supportive, and personalized healing. My practice weaves trauma-informed approaches like EMDR, Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) with mindfulness, expressive arts, and holistic care. As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Certified IFS Therapist, EMDR-certified clinician, Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, and Board-Certified Art Therapist, I offer a compassionate space to heal trauma, reconnect with yourself, and cultivate greater embodied safety and inner steadiness.

I am passionate about helping people process and heal from their past traumas and work towards their optimal health. As an integrative adult nurse practitioner, Reiki Master, and Transpersonal & Trauma Healing Hypnosis practitioner I am able to bring the two worlds together for total healing (body, mind & soul).

Many of my clients come in to therapy wanting to overcome stress and hard emotions, or break painful patterns in their relationships. I often work with clients who have felt hurt by their relationships due to harsh words, addiction or leaving when they needed them. For many, the first goals involve understanding how others' actions have impacted them, and who they are outside of that impact. My goal is for clients to find clarity and feel empowered to choose for themselves their next step forward.

Therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected and empowered to set their own goals and timing for personal growth and change. Times of crisis, though overwhelming, can yield great opportunites for meaningful change for individuals and families. I believe therapy is about instilling and nurturing hope so people can become the best versions of themselves.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. You may notice the same patterns showing up in your relationships, struggle with boundaries, overthink, people-please, or shut down when things become too much.

I enjoy working with people who are seeking solutions and looking for ways to improve their lives. My approach is focused on helping people identify strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful change.

Whether you are facing a difficult transition, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for greater fulfillment, I strive to provide a supportive environment where you can explore your concerns, build resilience, and work toward a happier, healthier life.

Are you or your child anxious? Have you experienced a traumatic event and now have a hard time coping? Are you experiencing relationship issues and just need someone to talk to? Do you feel overwhelmed by past experiences, struggle to cope with strong emotions, or encounter obstacles in daily life? I understand that these can feel isolating and difficult to navigate. I want to provide you with a safe, nonjudgmental space where, together, we can explore these struggles and work towards healing and growth.

As a person-centered, trauma-informed therapist, I recognize that trauma and difficult experiences can shape our nervous system, emotions, relationships, and sense of self. I believe many of the ways we think, feel, and respond develop as meaningful adaptations to our experiences. I support clients in understanding these patterns and navigating trauma and its effects while prioritizing safety, trust, and a manageable pace. I strive to create a collaborative, individualized space that honors your experiences, needs, and goals while supporting meaningful growth.

It is my passion to help children, teens and young adults, whenever there has been a concern for problematic behavior that has gotten them in trouble or that hurt someone. If you need help addressing something like this, or if you have questions generally about equipping your child to keep themselves and others safe (think about technology use, sexting, etc), I would love to work with you. I also really enjoy working with youth who need help processing a traumatic experience (I provide TF-CBT, an evidence based treatment program). When possible, I include the caregiver or parent in treatment.

You're holding it together on the outside, but on the inside you're spiraling. Maybe you feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, burnout or exhausted. You hold it together all day and lose it as soon as you're home. You've tried therapy before and nothing seems to change no matter how much you try to “think or talk your way through it.” Your nervous system is still constantly on.

My ideal clients are women, especially mothers, who feel overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in a season of transition. Many are balancing the demands of family, relationships, careers, or supporting a child in the performing arts. They come to me seeking clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of self. Through therapy and coaching, I help them reconnect with who they are, identify what they need, and create lives that feel more aligned, intentional, and fulfilling.

Welcome! What a gift you are giving yourself by seeking out support during this time in your journey. Let's explore whether we share an alignment and safety in doing the hard work of unpacking your concerns and questions. What I have learned is that most of us have an idea about who we are and how our childhood or our lived experiences have shaped us. We also are built with an internal healer, and therapy can be a powerful tool as a kind of emotional sonogram, revealing what can use some attention.
It is important to find support, and I have a longer lived experience with a diverse educational background. I am happy to support you.
