Great to meet you!

I am a trauma-focused, EMDR-trained therapist offering holistic, non-pathologizing therapy for adults navigating CPTSD, relational trauma, and identity-based stress.

My approach to therapy

My work affirming, social justice–oriented, and grounded in the belief that symptoms are adaptive responses rather than disorders to be fixed. I integrate EMDR, somatic and mindfulness-based approaches, and spiritual exploration to support nervous system healing, self-trust, and meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

Therapy is a collaborative process, together we will work together to identify goals for treatment.
