You might be doing well on the outside, but inside you might be feeling betrayed, confused, angry, anxious, and on edge. You may feel like cognitively things are okay, but your nervous system hasn't caught up to that fact. I have a calming voice but can get animated when appropriate and will bring in humor when it fits. Many of my clients are emerging from relational trauma (including narcissistic or controlling dynamics), wrestling with anxiety, chronic PTSD, attachment wounds, or dealing with the hormonal changes of perimenopause. Let's work together to help you feel more secure in your identity, and learn to trust yourself again.

You don’t have to stay locked in patterns of people-pleasing, silence, or professional autopilot. If you’re ready to turn down the noise, hear your own voice, and choose your next chapter with intention — let’s talk. Think of us rewriting your internal script so you don’t just respond to expectations — you author your next chapter.

My approach is trauma-informed and value-driven. We’ll explore the unseen parts of you — the story you haven’t told, the values you’ve side-lined, the voice you’ve muted. I draw on DBT, EMDR, Gottman, and person-centered practices to help you not just feel safer and stronger, but move into clarity, direction, and living what matters most to you. I am an EMDR Certified Therapist, Gottman Level 2 Trained, and CPT Trained. I’m also a Certified NATC and a Certified PD Treatment Provider. I help individuals heal from trauma, betrayal, navigate complex relationships, and build better emotional awareness and boundaries. Because I use the Gottman Method, I cannot accept insurance for couples sessions. My couples session rate is $175.

I believe healing happens in safe, honest spaces where you can take off the mask and just be you. As a down-to-earth, friendly, and humorous Gen Xer with late-diagnosed ADHD, navigating the realities of midlife, and my 11 1/2 years of living overseas, I bring cultural perspective, resilience, and curiosity to my work. I leave no stone unturned but work with you gently at your pace.
