If you’re silently struggling with porn addiction, you already know the emotional toll: shame, secrecy, and the frustration of breaking promises to yourself. Whether it’s Pornhub, OnlyFans, cam sites, or endless scrolling, your partner may feel hurt and disconnected. You’re likely overwhelmed by guilt and stuck in patterns you swore you’d quit. Even if you’re not in a relationship, porn may still be affecting your confidence, focus, or ability to connect. It doesn’t have to stay this way. I help men who feel stuck in this cycle break free from compulsive porn use and rebuild intimacy without shame or judgment.

I work with clients who struggle with somatic symptoms, emotional dysregulation, and cognitive beliefs that do not serve their relationships with self, others, or the world around them.
I am dedicated to healing the scars that trauma inscribes on hearts, in minds, through behaviors. I understand the fragility of the heart, the dark and winding paths that are possible for the mind to follow, and the effects which play out in the body. Moments that are beyond our comprehension, beyond our control, that play out in a narrative that is not of our choosing. It is my passion to come alongside the individual – child, adolescent, teen, young adult, adult – to help bring light to the darkness, and to walk with the family to develop new ways of seeing one another and interacting together.

There is no greater freedom than living in your true self, a self authentically and lovingly connected to others. It’s how we are built. It’s how our children are built. Living the kind of balance many of us aspire to looks a heck of lot easier in print than it is in action. It takes work to integrate it all, but it is so worth it.

Past hurts affect the brain and body, so we will integrate mindfulness and somatic practices to expand awareness.
I understand that finding the right therapist is a deeply personal decision, and my goal is to offer a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected. I know this is important because, for years, I struggled with anxiety and depression due to childhood trauma. It impacted my marriage, parenting, and career. I found healing through therapy and yoga. I want to help you get on the other side of overwhelm, intrusive thoughts, mistrust, and anxiety.

With individual clients I use a mindfulness-based, attachment-informed, parts work informed and somatic lens to help clients reconnect with themselves and live more fully in alignment with their values.
People that come to see me are individuals and couples who feel stuck in patterns of disconnection, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm. They may be carrying the weight of anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship struggles that they know they want to get out of but don't quite know the way through. They long for safety, clarity and belonging. Some want to reconnect with their partner after months or years of conflict or distance; others hope to feel more at home in themselves, yearning to untangle the shame or pain that keeps them from living fully.

A typical plan may include IFS, EMDR, somatic therapy, inner child work, and KAP.
As a survivor of my own childhood trauma, my goal has always been to help facilitate healing for others. I strive to help others take off the burden of shame and step into their true identity of self-love and worthiness. To Live Consciously means to be intentional about who you want to be in life and become it. To do this we must become aware of the unconscious beliefs and unresolved traumas that have influenced our lives. In order to do this, we must cultivate awareness. As a therapist, I strive to break the barriers of traditional therapy by going beyond the mind and helping facilitate healing for the body as well.

My approach blends neuroscience, EMDR, CBT, and somatic therapy to calm the nervous system, relieve burnout, release the weight of past experiences, feel more confidence, and support and rebuild lasting resilience.

I offer a safe, supportive space to slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and find real tools for healing and balance.

How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
