About Me

I work with teens 16+ and adults who grew up being the one everyone counted on and are still carrying that role into their relationships, boundaries, and sense of self.
You may be the person who learned early to keep the peace, take care of everyone else, or read the room before anyone said a word. Now, you understand where those patterns came from, but understanding them hasn't necessarily made them easier to change.
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative.

I help clients look at the connection between earlier experiences and what still happens automatically in the present, especially around conflict, relationships, people-pleasing, guilt, and choosing themselves. My work is person-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed, and may incorporate EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), somatic work, and stabilization approaches.

I offer therapy in person in Fayetteville, New York, and via telehealth where I am authorized to practice.
