Healing is more than simply understanding what has happened to us—it is also about reconnecting with ourselves, feeling safer in our bodies, and creating space for meaningful change. My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, relational, and embodied, integrating evidence-based and mind-body approaches to support healing at a pace that feels both challenging and manageable.
As a trauma therapist and EMDR Certified Therapist, I work with adults navigating complex and single-incident trauma. I draw from EMDR, parts work, somatic interventions, clinical hypnosis, mindfulness, ERP, DBT, and CBT, tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals. I am particularly interested in helping clients who have done therapy or personal growth work and are ready to move beyond building insight into deeper processing and making meaningful change. Therapy with me is a collaborative process. I bring clinical expertise, curiosity, and a grounded presence, while recognizing that you are the expert on your own experience. Together, we can explore the patterns and protective strategies that have helped you survive while creating new possibilities for how you relate to yourself and the world around you.
My work is grounded in cultural humility and an awareness of how identity, relationships, and systemic and intergenerational experiences can shape our mental health. I strive to create a space where you feel respected, understood, and supported in bringing your whole self to the work. If you’re ready to explore deeper healing and want a therapist who can meet you with both compassion and curiosity, I would be honored to work with you.
