Great to meet you!

I help Preteens, teens, and adults heal from trauma and work through challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, emotional dysregulation, and negative self-beliefs. Many clients come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, often carrying the weight of painful past experiences. I provide a safe, supportive space where you feel understood and not alone. Care is tailored to your needs, helping you process experiences, reduce distress, and build healthier coping skills. My goal is to support healing, resilience, and emotional balance so you can move toward a more connected and fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based, trauma-focused therapies to support healing. EMDR helps reprocess distressing memories to reduce symptoms like PTSD and anxiety. IFS explores inner “parts” to increase self-compassion and emotional regulation. EMDR integrated with IFS deepens trauma work through safe, structured processing. TF-CBT is a skills-based approach for Children

What you can expect from me

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by past experiences, you’re not alone. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it by yourself. I am here to support you with care that meets you where you are. When you’re ready, reach out—together we can take the next step toward healing and a more peaceful, connected life.
