Clients I Work With

Some days you hold it all together. Other days, the weight is harder to hide, restless nights, a tightness in your chest, a feeling of being untethered. You may also see it in your teen: the spark dimming, smiles fading, or unexplained aches and tension. What you want is simple, but feels far away, ease, connection, a sense of safety in your own skin. Therapy can be a place to gently untangle what’s been carried too long, helping you or your child feel lighter, more grounded, and more connected to yourself and others.

Approach

Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and the ways your body holds past experiences. Drawing from advanced training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, EMDR, IFS, CBT and more, I offer a holistic, mind, body approach that helps release what’s been carried too long and fosters safety, balance, and deeper connection.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

You deserve a space where your story is heard and held with care. I offer a free 20-minute consultation, a chance to talk, be heard, and see how we can create your path toward greater ease.
