About Me

This idea that you’re not good enough comes up in every aspect of your life - your job, your romantic relationships, your friendships, your familial relationships. You know that this idea comes from your past, but you’re finding it hard to move past it completely. Your attachments are not where you want them to be - especially the one with yourself. Wouldn’t it be great if you could have a better, more unconditional relationship with yourself? To be able to finally move past your past? To have more authentic, deeper relationships? That’s exactly what I can help you achieve. And we do this by moving beyond traditional talk therapy to get that much deeper. Through EMDR, parts work, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and other holistic methods, we’ll go beyond talking about the pain to truly transform it. These therapies reach the deeper layers where complex trauma lives, allowing you to process and release what’s been holding you back. I’m here to help you reconnect with yourself, process and let go of the past, and support you in building and maintaining deeper relationships. Let’s work together!
