About Me

Welcome, I’m glad you’re here. You may be someone who has always shown up for others but feels unseen, exhausted, or disconnected inside. Many of my clients come to therapy carrying the invisible weight of familial or relational trauma, patterns of emotional neglect, criticism, betrayal, or codependency that quietly shape how they think, feel, and relate. You don’t have to continue living from those old wounds. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care and a deep respect for your story. I use EMDR and Brainspotting to help you safely access and release the trauma that has been stored beneath the surface. Together, we’ll create a space where healing feels grounded, gentle, and real. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes. It’s about understanding yourself on a deeper level, learning to regulate your emotions, and rebuilding a sense of self that feels whole and empowered. My approach is collaborative, warm, and attuned to your pace. If you’re ready to invest in your emotional wellness and do the deeper work of healing, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Taking the first step toward healing can feel hard but you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s talk about what you need and how I can help. Reach out today to schedule a free consultation and begin your healing journey.
