I work primarily with women navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, self-esteem, guilt and shame, career stress, and major life transitions. Many of the women I work with are capable and successful on the outside but may feel overwhelmed, stuck, exhausted, or disconnected on the inside.

I have advanced training in EMDR, an evidence-based approach that can help you process difficult or traumatic experiences that may still be affecting you today. I also use a variety of approaches based on your individual needs, goals, and comfort level.

Together, we’ll work to better understand what you’re experiencing, how past experiences and current stressors may be affecting you, and what you need to move forward. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, develop greater self-awareness and self-compassion, and create meaningful change in your life.

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, collaborative, and tailored to you. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, supportive space where you can be heard without judgment and work at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

I draw from several evidence-based approaches, including CBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, EMDR, somatic techniques, and person-centered therapy. Depending on your needs and goals, we may explore how your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and body are connected, work through difficult experiences, develop healthier coping skills, or build greater self-awareness and emotional balance.

Rather than telling you what you should do, I work alongside you to understand what you need, recognize your strengths, and find strategies that fit your life. My goal is not only to help you feel better, but to support deeper healing, greater self-compassion, and a stronger sense of confidence and empowerment in your life.

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and for you to share what brings you to therapy. You’ll have a calm, supportive, and judgment-free space to talk at your own pace.

We’ll talk about what you’re experiencing, what may be contributing to it, and what you hope to get from therapy. I’ll ask questions about your background and experiences so I can better understand you as a whole person.

Together, we’ll begin identifying what you’d like to work on and what feels most important to you. I’ll also explain how I approach therapy and answer any questions you may have, so you feel comfortable with the process.

There’s no pressure to have everything figured out. My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard, supported, and with a clearer sense of where we can go from here.
