Are you struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges that seem rooted in past experiences? I specialize in helping adults break free from the lasting effects of childhood trauma. My practice is centered on guiding clients toward healing using an individualized, evidence-based approach. I integrate Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral approaches to help clients overcome trauma-related patterns, foster self-compassion, restore emotional balance, and create lasting, meaningful change.
Whether you're feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns or overwhelmed by emotional pain, I offer a supportive space where we can work together to transform your life. Together, we will address the underlying roots of your pain, work towards breaking harmful patterns, and help you build healthier relationships with yourself and others.
Life can be overwhelming, and it’s okay to seek support. I’m here to listen without judgment and help you find clarity and healing in your own time and way. I offer a free 15-minute phone consult, so please feel free to reach out to see if we're a good fit.

I work with clients who may be struggling with the side effects of past traumas. We start with mindfulness and self-compassion skills and work to uncover the underlying reasons for the symptoms. We collaboratively create a plan to address your needs and help you create balance. Most clients experience a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
