Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed therapist with training in EMDR, DBT, and somatic approaches, and I hold a background in holistic and humanistic therapy. My education and clinical experience have focused on supporting adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, identity development, and life transitions. I work with a diverse range of clients and provide LGBTQIA+ affirming care. My approach is collaborative and grounded, helping clients reconnect with their intuition, build emotional resilience, and move toward greater self-trust and balance.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative — I see therapy as a space we co-create. I take a holistic and humanistic approach, meaning I hold space for your thoughts, emotions, body, relationships, and beliefs as interconnected parts of your healing. I integrate EMDR to help resolve trauma, draw from DBT for practical skill-building, and weave in somatic therapy to reconnect you with your body’s innate wisdom. Together, we’ll explore not only what’s not working, but also what wants to grow.

What you can expect from me

Clients often tell me they feel at ease in our work together — that our sessions feel real, human, and quietly transformative. I aim to create a space where you can explore what it means to live with more self-trust, choice, and connection. Therapy with me is not about fixing you — it’s about discovering what you already know and have been carrying all along.
