Throughout life, our experiences shape our beliefs about ourselves and the world, our emotional responses, and even how the body takes in experiences through the senses and nervous system. When experiences are difficult, overwhelming, or traumatic, our bodies and minds are impacted in ways that can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, stuck, or overwhelmed. We develop responses and ways to protect ourselves—including coping strategies and patterns like using substances, avoiding things, or struggling to manage our emotions or reactivity. These patterns tend to show up in our relationships, making everything feel even harder.

Therapy offers a space to heal from past trauma and gain a deeper understanding of who you are and how you want to be in the world. In my practice, I walk alongside you as you cultivate self-awareness, providing a calm, private space where you can process your experiences and move toward your goals.

My clinical approach is trauma-informed and evidence-based, focused on healing and restoring balance between the mind/body and nervous system. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and draw from Relational-Cultural, Psychodynamic and Interpersonal Neurobiology theories in my practice. Additionally, I may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Ecotherapy and mindfulness-based techniques for clients seeking practical tools to navigate daily life challenges. Our work together will be personalized for you.
