I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up fully as you are without needing to perform, hide, or have everything figured out. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, self-aware, and have already done a lot of inner work but still find themselves feeling stuck in patterns related to anxiety, trauma, relationships, or intmacy. I have a Masters in Clinical Mental Health and specialize in trauma-informed care. I treat people with a history of CPTSD or other forms of trauma utilizing evidence based practices. My style is warm, collaborative, and curious. Together we’ll slow things down, make sense of what your mind and nervous system have been carrying, and help you reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been pushed aside in order to survive. I believe healing happens not just through insight, but through experiencing safety, honesty, and self-compassion in the therapeutic relationship.

My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and focused on helping clients understand both the psychological and nervous system patterns that shape their experiences.

I often integrate insight-based exploration with practical tools that help regulate the nervous system, process emotions, and shift long-standing patterns. Rather than just focusing on symptoms, we work to understand the deeper roots of what you're experiencing so real, lasting change becomes possible. I use EMDR, IFS, Somatic work and expressive arts therapy modalities. Therapy with me tends to include reflection, gentle challenges, emotional processing, and learning how to listen to the signals your mind and body are giving you.

The first session is a space for us to get to know each other and begin understanding what brings you to therapy.

We’ll talk about what you’ve been experiencing, what you hope might change, and any patterns or challenges that feel most important right now. I’ll also ask some questions about your background so I can better understand the context of your life and experiences. You don’t need to prepare anything or know exactly what to say. My role is to help guide the conversation so we can start identifying where support might be most helpful. By the end of the session, we’ll usually have a clearer sense of your goals and how we might begin working toward them together.
