About Me
Talking alone isn't always enough, which is why my practice blends talk therapy with evidence based innovative somatic techniques like mindfulness and EMDR. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to manage the demands of daily life while also trying to make sense of ongoing emotional imbalances or behavioral misalignments. But you don’t have to do it alone.
