True healing begins by exploring how past experiences continue to impact the way you think, feel, and relate to others. How you show up in the relationships that matter most to you. Grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and the weight of patterns you've carried for years have a way of becoming the water you swim in — familiar, exhausting, and nearly impossible to see clearly from the inside. You may have tried to push through, stay busy, or simply manage — and found that it only goes so far.

As an LCSW, I work with adults who are ready to understand what they've been carrying, not to relive it endlessly, but to finally set some of it down. My work draws on EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic awareness, because healing isn't only a cognitive process. It lives in the body too. In the tension you hold, the way your breath shifts, the physical echoes of experiences your mind has long tried to move past. When we work at that level, something shifts that talking alone often can't reach.

What makes my approach distinct is the attention I bring to the relationship between your inner world and your outer life. Complex relationship patterns, grief, and the slow erosion of self-confidence are rarely isolated concerns — they're connected, layered, and shaped by everything you've lived through. Together we'll make sense of those connections, understand what your nervous system has been protecting, and build something more sustainable than simply getting through the day.

My approach is relational and collaborative, grounded in genuine respect for your pace, your story, and your autonomy. I bring warmth, honesty, and steady curiosity to every session — and a deep belief that the relationship you develop with yourself is the foundation for everything else. Healing here isn't about performing progress or moving on before you're ready. It's about gradually coming home to yourself.

As a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, I am passionate about personal growth, both physically and mentally. I find balance through movement, whether it's walking my dogs, hiking, or riding my horses.
