Are you struggling to move forward because of past trauma or overwhelming life experiences? Do you find yourself seeking escape through substances, toxic relationships, social media, or other maladaptive compulsive behaviors—only to feel more stuck and disconnected? If you're longing to move beyond anxiety, depression, and shame into a space of healing and post-traumatic growth, you're not alone—and change is possible. Trauma and PTSD can deeply impact the nervous system, disrupting both emotional and physiological balance and leading to avoidant behaviors that prolong suffering.
With over 18 years of experience in the mental health field, I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to therapy. I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Conjoint Therapy (CBCT-PTSD), and Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy (PAT) to support your healing process.
Together, we’ll work to shift your relationship with past trauma, transforming pain into a source of strength, resilience, and deeper self-understanding. My hope is that therapy becomes a space where you reclaim your story—not as one defined by suffering, but by growth, empowerment, and renewed purpose.

I work with clients who may be struggling with PTSD, complex trauma, and subsequent symptoms. During our initial session we will collaborate in identifying past experiences that may have laid the foundation for maladaptive thinking and behaviors. We will also work to identify internal strengths that will assist with the healing process.
