About this provider

Clients I Work With

You might be a high achiever, perfectionist, or executive who appears successful but feels anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected. As an executive, you may be navigating a new role, struggling to connect with your team, or noticing gaps that affect leadership and balance. You could be a helper or professional carrying so much for others that you’ve lost connection with yourself. Perhaps you’re feeling stuck, in grief or trauma, or seeking deeper connection in a partnership, clarity on next steps, or tools to manage anxiety and obsessive thoughts. No matter your path, you’re ready to reclaim balance, deepen connection, and move forward with clarity, resilience, and purpose in life, work, and relationships.

Approach

My work is integrative and trauma-informed, blending top-down insight with bottom-up nervous system healing. Together, we explore patterns, beliefs, and meaning while also working with the body to build regulation, safety, and resilience. Sessions feel collaborative, warm, and attuned, with space for both depth and practical tools you can use in daily life. I draw from EMDR and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), informed IFS parts work, attachment-based therapy, I-CBT, ACT, somatic practices, mindfulness and coaching strategies. With couples, I integrate informed Gottman methods, discernment counseling, and support for intentional divorce when needed. I aim to balance curiosity and gentle challenge, helping you move beyond insight into lasting, embodied change.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

I show up as a real, relational therapist who values authenticity, consent, and anti-oppressive care. I have both personal and professional experience supporting religious trauma, including my own history within the church. Whether you’re unpacking harmful beliefs or redefining spirituality, I hold space with care. I invite conversations about spirituality in whatever way fits you, traditional, alternative (like tarot or astrology), or not at all. My work is grounded in harm reduction, honoring your autonomy. I’m comfortable supporting all areas of life, including addiction, non-monogamy and kink. As a former perfectionist, I bring lived understanding to help you relate to yourself with more compassion and flexibility.

More About My Practice

My practice offers flexible, personalized support for individuals and couples. For individuals, I provide EMDR and ART extended sessions and therapy intensives for deeper, more intentional work. For couples, I offer extended sessions and therapy intensives utilizing informed Gottman couples therapy to help clients learn to break cycles and communicate better and discernment counseling and intentional divorce support to help couples make decisions about the future of their relationship. I also offer immigration evaluations with cultural sensitivity for individuals who are working towards a U/T visa, asylum or hardship. Coaching services, Supervision and Private Practice Mentorship also available. I create an affirming, collaborative space that meets you where you are. Complimentary consultations are available to explore fit, answer questions, and determine next steps for your care.
