I help thoughtful, high-functioning adults move from feeling stuck in painful emotional and relational patterns toward greater clarity, self-leadership, emotional regulation, and deeper connection — without endlessly analyzing themselves or repeating cycles that insight alone hasn’t changed.
Using IFS (parts work) and EMDR, I offer a highly attuned, grounded space where your internal world is approached with precision, care, and respect. This is work that moves beyond coping and symptom management toward meaningful, lasting transformation and a deeper sense of calm, coherence, and trust in yourself.
My work integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR to help you access and heal the underlying emotional patterns driving your experience. Together, we work directly with the parts of you that carry pain, protection, and survival strategies—allowing for meaningful shifts at the root level. I offer both ongoing therapy and intensive sessions.
If you’re ready for a deeper level of work—where you don’t have to explain or perform, and where your internal experience is truly understood—I invite you to reach out. This is a space for thoughtful, meaningful change, at a pace that honors both your readiness and your capacity.

Groups
IFS-Informed Women’s Therapy Group
An IFS-informed therapy group for women who are highly capable on the outside — and quietly carrying a lot on the inside. You may be successful, thoughtful, emotionally aware, and deeply relied upon by others, while privately carrying anxiety, pressure, emotional exhaustion, self-criticism, or loneliness. This group is designed for women who have done some personal work and are ready for deeper relational healing and connection. Together, we’ll explore the inner patterns and protective strategies that helped you survive, succeed, and stay in control — while creating more space for authenticity, self-compassion, emotional freedom, and Self-leadership.
