Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed and confused, like their thoughts are tangled and they cannot find their way through them. They are often healing from harmful or abusive relationships, working through attachment wounds, navigating major life transitions, or trying to rebuild a sense of self that got lost somewhere along the way. Some have been questioning their own reality for so long that they just need someone to help them make sense of it. In our work together, we slow down, untangle the confusion, and help you find clarity about who you are and what you need.
My specialties include working with people who are healing from challenging relationships, including domestic violence and childhood abuse. I am trained in EMDR and Internal Family Systems, and advanced training in PTSD and C-PTSD. My goal is to help you move forward to heal from past trauma and to build a life that is beautiful and meaningful to you.
You have been carrying a lot, and it makes sense that you are looking for support. Whatever brought you here, you deserve a space where you feel believed, not judged, and not alone. I offer a free 15-minute consultation and would love to connect whenever you feel ready.

I can help you with: the trauma of narcissistic abuse, coercive control, domestic violence, and feeling like you've "lost yourself" in the relationship. I work with survivors facing post-separation abuse and stressful court processes. Treatment often includes building internal safety, understanding trauma responses, reclaiming your voice, and grieving what you've endured.
