You may be feeling overwhelmed, no matter what you do, the memories, tension, or sense of unease just won’t let up. Maybe you’re on edge, easily startled, or finding it hard to relax. Perhaps you feel numb or detached from the people you care about—or the past keeps intruding on your present through flashbacks, nightmares, or sudden waves of emotion. If you’re exhausted by the weight of trauma, distressing memories, or emotional disconnection, you are not alone. I work with adolescents, adults, and families to navigate the effects of trauma, post-traumatic stress, and emotional pain with compassion and clarity.

Together, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface—whether that’s unresolved trauma, grief, body-based reactions, or patterns that developed as a way to cope with overwhelming experiences. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative, drawing on evidence-based practices. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

is a highly researched and effective method that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity and fostering deeper healing. I also consider the impact of family and relational dynamics, using a systems perspective to help clients build understanding, safety, and stronger connections.
