I primarily work with women who are recovering from trauma—especially relationship wounds, systemic harassment, and sexual trauma. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling disconnected from themselves, stuck in patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, or difficulty setting boundaries—often after experiences that have impacted their self-trust, voice, or sense of identity. Therapy with me is a space to come back to yourself—at your own pace, in your own way.
Together, we’ll explore what’s been painful, confusing, or overwhelming, while also strengthening your ability to feel grounded, trust your instincts, and move through emotions without becoming overwhelmed by them. Many of the women I work with begin to feel more confident setting boundaries, clearer in their decisions, and more at home in their bodies.
My style is strength-based, integrating talk therapy with opportunities for creative exploration and trauma resolution through Art Therapy, Nature-based work, and Somatic Experiencing. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Our work together offers a space to reconnect with yourself—with support that feels steady, respectful, and attuned to you.
