My clients are adults who look fine on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. They're navigating trauma, burnout, identity stress, relationship strain, or major life transitions — and they're ready for real change, not just coping. I also work with teens 13+ facing anxiety, self-worth, and life changes. Together, we build grounding first, then explore the patterns and experiences keeping them stuck. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, we work toward clarity, stability, and feeling like themselves again.
I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and life transitions using EMDR, CBT, and DBT. My approach is trauma-informed and practical — we regulate your nervous system first, then do the deeper work. I offer virtual therapy to individuals and couples, with a free 30-minute consultation to get started.
Whatever brought you here today — whether it's pain you can't explain, patterns you can't break, or simply a feeling that something needs to change — that took courage. You don't have to have it all figured out to reach out. You just have to be ready to try. I'm here, and I'd love to walk alongside you.
