You feel unnatural, like you’re following instructions. The idea of washing the dishes or emptying the dryer feels heavy, intimidating. You are lonely most of the day, but spending time with people doesn’t help. You try not to think about the future too much. You’re busy all day, and the tasks keep on piling up with no end in sight: there’s a long list of things you “haven’t gotten to yet”. Not even people close to you understand how hard you are working and how precarious your life is. Doctors haven’t helped any more than religion or podcasts. If anything, you are sinking deeper.

Life can take us on an unexpected journey. Sometimes it brings an exciting adventure, and other times it leaves us feeling anxious and out of control. Do you find yourself wishing you could get "back to normal" or wondering how to cope? Many of my clients seek therapy because they want to feel like themselves again. Trauma, loss, and other life transitions are painful, but difficult experiences don't define who you are. We all have the inner capacity for healing and growth.

You’re successful on paper, but inside, you’re exhausted. Anxiety, burnout, or old trauma patterns keep running the show, no matter how much you achieve. Maybe you’ve tried therapy, medication, or even white-knuckling your way through, but nothing sticks. You’re tired of cycling through perfectionism, addiction, or emotional avoidance just to get by. You want relief, but more than that—you want to feel alive, present, and at peace in your own skin. Our work together focuses on breaking these loops and building a sustainable, self-compassionate way forward.

I specialize in the successful treatment of childhood trauma, PTSD and Complex PTSD. My approach is primarily somatic work, and behaviorism, utilizing the knowledge of the subconscious to end those problems and repeating patterns for good. Achieving women, motivated, intuitive and intelligent are drawn to the work because they are ready to move beyond the mental and emotional limitations that have kept them struggling in lower frequencies of torment. I treat the multidimensional human system: spirit, energy fields, intuition, emotions, body, and subconscious mind.

I work with individuals and couples. I have found that the most content humans are the ones who have created enough internal space to allow all the parts of themselves to coexist despite the contradictions. Have you ever stopped to wonder about all the parts of you? Why am I excited and terrified at the same time? Why am I trying to please other people but harsh on myself? "Parts Work" is a creative exploration; being a compassionate witness to your own pain. Let's bring some self awareness to your patterns in order to choose how you want to show up for yourselves and others. (With Couples I also use Gottman Method and CBT)
