Great to meet you!

Some experiences don't just leave a mark — they quietly reshape the way you move through the world. How safe you feel. How much you trust yourself. How you show up in the relationships that matter most to you. Grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and the weight of patterns you've carried for years have a way of becoming the water you swim in — familiar, exhausting, and nearly impossible to see clearly from the inside. You may have tried to push through, stay busy, or simply manage — and found that it only goes so far.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with adults who are ready to understand what they've been carrying — not to relive it endlessly, but to finally set some of it down. My work draws on EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic awareness, because healing isn't only a cognitive process. It lives in the body too — in the tension you hold, the way your breath shifts, the physical echoes of experiences your mind has long tried to move past. When we work at that level, something shifts that talking alone often can't reach.

What makes my approach distinct is the attention I bring to the relationship between your inner world and your outer life. Complex relationship patterns, grief, and the slow erosion of self-confidence are rarely isolated concerns — they're connected, layered, and shaped by everything you've lived through. Together we'll make sense of those connections, understand what your nervous system has been protecting, and build something more sustainable than simply getting through the day.

My approach is relational and collaborative, grounded in genuine respect for your pace, your story, and your autonomy. I bring warmth, honesty, and steady curiosity to every session — and a deep belief that the relationship you develop with yourself is the foundation for everything else. Healing here isn't about performing progress or moving on before you're ready. It's about gradually coming home to yourself.

My approach to therapy

Becoming a Certified EMDR Therapist changed the way I understand what healing actually requires. Some experiences don't resolve through insight alone — they live in the body, in reflexive responses, in the way safety can feel just out of reach even when nothing is visibly wrong. EMDR works precisely there, helping the nervous system process what the mind has struggled to integrate on its own. Alongside EMDR, I draw on complementary approaches to help you rebuild a genuine sense of safety, untangle patterns that have complicated your closest relationships, and reconnect with a version of yourself that feels steady and whole — not just functional.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is compassionate and direct in equal measure — I'm not here to simply reflect your experience back to you, but to actively help you make sense of it. Whether you're working through trauma, navigating anxiety, or untangling something that's been quietly undermining your relationships for years, the work we do together will be grounded, practical, and genuinely tailored to you. I don't believe lasting change comes from insight alone — it comes from building something real between sessions, in the moments when it actually matters. That's what I'm here to help you find.
