I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard, supported, and accepted exactly as you are. Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, burnout, grief, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you as we make sense of what you’re experiencing and work toward meaningful change.

I support adults experiencing a broad range of concerns, including trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, substance use, life transitions, relationship challenges, and recovery from narcissistic or emotionally abusive relationships. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop practical strategies that help you move forward with greater confidence and self-understanding.

One of the approaches I offer is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) (what is EMDR?), an evidence-based therapy that can help the brain process distressing experiences so they no longer feel as overwhelming. EMDR isn’t the right fit for everyone, and it isn’t where every therapy journey begins. We’ll first take the time to understand your story, your goals, and your needs before deciding together whether EMDR is an appropriate part of your treatment.

I can support you with:

• Trauma and post-traumatic stress (broad spectrum)
• Anxiety, depression, chronic stress, and burnout
• Grief and loss, including the loss of relationships, identity, or career
• Recovery from narcissistic abuse and emotionally unhealthy relationships
• Relationship concerns, boundaries, self-worth, and personal growth
• Exploring your relationship with substances or supporting a loved one experiencing substance use
• Life transitions, uncertainty, and navigating change

My practice is rooted in humility, integrity, and inclusivity. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to provide a compassionate, collaborative space where you can safely explore your experiences, build resilience, and move toward the life you want to create.
