About My Clients

I tend to work with adults who are navigating any mix of the following: PTSD/trauma (including religious trauma), queerness, identity exploration, chronic illness, neurodivergence, parenthood/caregiving, anxiety/overwhelm.

My Background and Approach

You can expect a down-to-earth, collaborative space where you don’t have to explain everything before being understood. I’ll bring a trauma-informed, person-centered approach, and we’ll draw from a mix of tools based on what feels right for you, whether that’s somatic work, expressive therapy, mindfulness, or EMDR.
