About Me

I treat those who have experienced trauma in their life. Whether it's from childhood neglect, sexual assault or a natural disaster, trauma often creates patterns and loops that extend into many areas of a person's life, and can be difficult or painful to overcome. Sometimes the way people survive their trauma brings them more pain, adds to the chaos, and reinforces negative beliefs that perpetuate the cycle. I work with clients to overcome their past, calm their bodies, and bring peace to their own lives. My practice focuses on bolstering strengths so they can face their past and find new meaning in life. I utilize a variety of techniques, such as grounding and meditation, somatic interventions, EMDR, as well as talk therapy techniques. I can hold space for you and teach you how to hold that space for yourself. Join me here to learn ways to care for yourself and move past the trauma that has been haunting you.
