About My Clients

If you are struggling with the lasting impacts of trauma, sexual abuse, or PTSD, you don't have to carry it alone. My ideal clients are ready to process deep pain, break free from self-blame, and restore emotional stability in a grounded, non-judgmental environment. I prioritize your safety, pacing, and consent in every step of the healing process so you never feel overwhelmed. My trauma-informed practice welcomes adults from all walks of life, offering fully affirming care to LGBTQ+ individuals

My Background and Approach

My professional practice is rooted in deep clinical expertise in trauma-informed care, sexual assault recovery, and PTSD treatment. Having spent years focused on the nuances of trauma, I understand how deeply unaddressed pain can affect your relationships, self-worth, and physical well-being. Because of this specialized training, you receive targeted care designed to process root-cause trauma without risking retraumatization. Together, we focus on restoring your nervous system's capacity for safety, calm, and genuine connection. As a trauma-specialized clinician who is also bisexual, I bring a unique blend of high-level clinical skill and lived cultural competence. This means you gain a partner who not only knows the evidence-based tools to facilitate deep healing, but who also respects and affirms every part of who you are. The ultimate goal of our work is to help you move beyond survival mode into a life marked by emotional stability, self-compassion, and authentic personal power.
