I work with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking to heal from the weight of trauma, anxiety, and depression, and who want to feel more connected to themselves and others. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck — carrying old wounds or patterns that continue to impact their relationships, self-esteem, and sense of peace. Using a compassionate, person-centered approach and evidence-based practices such as EMDR, I help clients process painful experiences, strengthen emotional resilience, and reconnect with their authentic selves. I also support those navigating grief, infertility, or major life transitions, pro
I help clients heal from trauma through EMDR, a powerful approach that restores balance and peace after painful experiences. Using the Gottman Method, I also guide couples in rebuilding trust, improving communication, and creating stronger, more connected relationships.
If you’re ready to heal from past pain and create meaningful change, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll work toward restoring balance, strengthening connection, and helping you feel more grounded and whole.
