I utilize somatic awareness, mindfulness, IFS, EFT (emotional freedom technique) and brain retraining so you can experience CHANGE.
Now doing In Person Myofascial Release! Talk therapy will remain virtual. Let me help you make some big shifts in your life! Most of the reason why we sabotage or ruin our progress is because our unconscious self is driving our behaviors. I can help you to bring those unconscious beliefs into your awareness so you can change your behaviors that don't serve you anymore. As a body-centered therapist (LPC and LMT), I help people who may be stuck in their healing process and are in need of deep and active work. By utilizing both psychotherapy and Myofascial Release, I help clients heal more effectively.

I use many evidence based practices combined with somatic and IFS check-in.
Welcome! I respect and acknowledge all relationship styles & sexual identities. My goal is to hold space.

I honor the profound connection between mind and body and often incorporate somatic, body-based practices into therapy.
Are you living life on autopilot? Do you feel disconnected from your body, relationships, or sense of purpose? Are you fighting to stay afloat in a world that feels like it wasn’t made for you? You deserve a safe and affirming space to explore your identities, relationships, and life's challenges in the context of greater systemic and social forces.

Treatment often includes EMDR, somatic therapy, grounding exercises, and psychoeducation to expand your window of tolerance and build resilience.
Trauma wraps itself around us, binding our bodies, our relationships, the way we see the world. It teaches us to survive but often at the cost of feeling truly alive. I know what it means to carry that weight—I’ve felt it too. But I’ve also felt the unbinding, the breath of freedom and joy that healing brings. It’s not simple or clean—it’s raw, messy, beautiful work. Maybe you feel stuck, circling the same patterns, carrying burdens too heavy to name. Maybe your walls feel safe but keep you from connection. Together, we’ll peel back the layers, rediscover your spark, and rebuild a life that feels like home. Let’s begin.
