“My work is trauma-responsive, not just trauma-informed. The difference is whether anything in the room actually changes because of what you’ve been through: the pace, the questions, how hard I press. You set the speed, and you can close a topic for the day without explaining why. The first two sessions are history and assessment, then we build a plan together. Practical tools and regulation come first, deeper processing once that holds. I work integratively and pull from EMDR, IFS, somatic and polyvagal-informed work, ACT, DBT skills, CPT, ERP for OCD, and Gottman Method training for couples. With neurodivergent clients the goal is minimum-to-no masking, so stimming, pacing, looking away or sitting quietly are all welcome. I do not use applied behavior analysis.”

“Depth-Oriented Psychodynamic Psychotherapy We don't just talk about what's happening. We talk about why it keeps happening. This approach looks beneath the surface, at patterns, old wounds, and the parts of yourself you may not fully see yet. It's slower, more curious, and honestly more interesting than symptom-chasing. Pulled from Carl Jung. EMDR Therapy: Some experiences don't respond to talking alone. EMDR helps the brain reprocess stuck memories so they stop running the show. It's structured, evidence-based, and often surprisingly powerful for people who've already done a lot of talk therapy. Skills Integration (CBT & DBT): Sometimes you need tools, not just insight. We weave in practical strategies for managing overwhelming emotions, changing thought patterns, and getting through hard moments without burning everything down. Experiential and Art Based Modalities as needed.”

“I firmly believe that each individual is unique, and that treatment should reflect this uniqueness. As such, I will honor your values, relationships, culture, and lived experiences as will work together to achieve your desired goals. Therapy with me is collaborative and client-led. You may cry but you may also laugh, and always you will find non-judgmental support as you navigate your family building journey.”

“We start with a free, 15-minute virtual consultation to see if we're a good fit for working together. During a 90-minute initial session, you have an opportunity to share with me more about your background and what is bringing you to therapy, and we discuss what you'd like to get out of our work together. Then, I draw from my training and experience, using modalities such as Narrative Therapy, Brainspotting, DBT, Parts Works, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you work through the concerns bringing you to therapy and feel more confident in moving forward in life.”

“I practice with a client centered trauma informed approach for all of my clients; whether you're here for EMDR, expressive arts therapy, or are looking for a compassionate talk therapist. I hold a safe space for my clients where I utilize calm guidance and gentle encouragement to help you reach your therapeutic goals.”

“Sessions with me feel like a focused conversation. You talk, and I listen closely. Together, we decide what deserves attention first. I use cognitive behavioral therapy adapted for the menopause transition, which means we look at how your thoughts and your body influence each other. Mindfulness comes in when it's useful. So do practical changes to sleep habits or daily routines. We'll also work on quieting your harshest inner critic, which matters more at this stage than most people expect. You'll leave most sessions with something concrete to try. And I'll be honest with you along the way. If something isn't working, we adjust. My job is to help you understand what's happening in your body and build a life that fits who you're becoming.”

“My work is grounded in the belief that symptoms are meaningful. Anxiety, perfectionism, emotional paralysis—these are not just problems to be managed but expressions of something deeper, often rooted in earlier experience or unconscious conflict. In therapy, we create the conditions for those patterns to reveal themselves, so they can be understood and worked through, not just pushed aside.”

“I weave together depth work from a Jungian perspective with EMDR to get at the root of issues clients are facing. I treat symptoms as information, anxiety, panic attacks, relationship habits, these are information that point us to the work that needs to be done to heal childhood or other foundational wounding in ways that last. My focus is not on changing behavior, but changing the soil from which behavior grows to bring about lasting change, including transforming beliefs about self and the world.”

“Sessions with me are warm, direct, and a little funny—being able to laugh at ourselves can help us heal and bounce back. I bring humor, genuine curiosity, and practical tools to our work, and I tailor my approach to you rather than running everyone through the same framework. We'll look at what's underneath the overwhelm--not just the anxious thoughts or the burnout itself, but why saying no feels so hard, or how you always end up being the one holding everything together. I draw on dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and positive psychology-based approaches, customized to your unique needs. Expect a therapist who's actively engaged, gives you real tools between sessions, and treats you as the expert on your own life.”

“You deserve to be treated as an unique person on your own authentic life path. I can support you becoming the person you want to be and traveling the path that works for you! I don't believe in cookie cutter approaches - so you help set your goals and tell me what works and doesn't work for you. I provide a safe, supportive environment for you to explore yourself and grow into your most authentic self and find the path that is right for you. Give me a call or email if you have any questions.”

“You deserve a space where you feel seen, valued, and understood—exactly as you are. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that healing begins with self-love and compassionate self-acceptance. Many of the clients I work with carry heavy expectations, old narratives, or roles that have left little room for their own needs. Together, we slow down, reconnect with your inner world, and rebuild a relationship with yourself that feels nurturing, grounded, and empowering.”

“I use psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and narrative therapies to help clients explore how past experiences may be influencing present patterns and develop new perspectives. I am also EMDR-trained and have completed foundational training in OCD. My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, compassionate, collaborative, and open-minded; my priority is to create a safe space for you.”
