You’re capable and deeply committed to growth, yet beneath the surface, the weight of betrayal, grief, and responsibility quietly drain your energy. You may appear to “have it all together,” but perfectionism, emotional suppression, and chronic self-pressure leave you feeling fragmented and unseen. You carry burdens of others while navigating complex decisions. Sound familiar? If so, I love supporting high-functioning clients just like you, navigating relational trauma, identity shifts, and deep transitions. My approach moves far beyond talk therapy to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been lost along the way.
I'm a certified Brainspotting therapist, trained in Internal Family Systems, certified in grief counseling, and pursuing accreditation in betrayal trauma. I offer weekly 60 and 90 minute sessions, as well as custom therapy intensives (4 to 8 hours and up to 2 to 3 days) for deeper, focused healing.
Now in Northwest Arkansas, I’m building a trauma-informed practice that honors complexity without judgment. Whether you’re piecing life back together or quietly rebuilding something that finally fits, I offer a space where every part of you is welcome and no truth is too heavy to name.

Brainspotting is a type of therapy that uses spots in a person's visual field to access, process, and overcome trauma, negative emotions, and pain. I use a pointer to guide the client's eyes across their field of vision to find appropriate "brainspots," which are eye positions that activate a traumatic memory or painful emotion. You are then allowed to process these emotions in a safe environment.
