Great to meet you!

Hi there—I'm really glad you're here. I'm a trauma therapist with advanced EMDR training, and I specialize in working with complex trauma and dissociation. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach. I blend EMDR with parts work, attachment theory, and body-based strategies to help clients reconnect with themselves and feel more at home in their lives.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, supportive, and collaborative. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach—together, we’ll tune into what your system needs most. Whether that’s deeper trauma processing, nervous system regulation, or just having space to breathe and feel, I’ll walk alongside you with curiosity and compassion.

What you can expect from me

Clients often leave sessions feeling more grounded, self-aware, and connected to themselves. Over time, I hope that you’ll experience a stronger sense of internal safety and confidence, along with increased capacity to feel present and empowered in your life. Therapy with me is about gently reclaiming the parts of you that have been hurt, hidden, or overwhelmed—and helping you come back to yourself, one step at a time.
