About My Clients

Most of my clients come to me due to feeling anxious, having panic attacks, because of a trauma history, or due to substance use concerns. We work together to understand your patterns, learn where they are coming from, establish a sense of safety in your body, and feel better connected to yourself.

My Background and Approach

I provide trauma therapy for those who are overwhelmed by their past experiences and who are ready to feel more like themselves. Our work together is collaborative, relational, and grounded in compassion. Using approaches like EMDR, AEDP, & IFS, we'll build insight into your patterns, create safety, and process emotions.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My work focuses on helping clients understand their inner experiences, sit with emotions safely, and use what arises in session to create lasting change. I would love to support you in living a life of peace, clarity, and confidence.
