Many of us carry conflicting feelings or parts of ourselves that seem to fight, shut down, or spiral—and we wonder why we can’t “just get it together.” Internal Family Systems (IFS) offers a different way to understand what's happening. Instead of seeing symptoms as flaws, IFS helps us explore them as parts—each with its own story, protective role, and unmet need. In our work together, we’ll gently get to know your internal system. That might mean meeting a perfectionist part that’s always brac

use EMDR to help clients process trauma, anxiety, and stuck patterns held in the body and nervous system. EMDR allows us to work with painful memories or beliefs without needing to relive them. It's a structured, evidence-based approach that supports deep healing by integrating past experiences and reducing emotional reactivity—so you can feel safer, more present, and more in control of your life.

I use Brainspotting to help clients process trauma, anxiety, and overwhelm held deep in the brain and body. By finding eye positions linked to emotional or somatic experiences, we access and release stuck material—often beyond what words can reach. It’s a gentle, focused approach that supports nervous system regulation and healing at your own pace, especially for clients who feel overanalyzed or disconnected from traditional talk therapy.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to define you. In therapy, we’ll create a calm, supportive space to untangle racing thoughts, soothe your nervous system, and build tools that bring relief. I use approaches like IFS, EMDR, and Brainspotting to address anxiety at its roots, not just the surface. Together, we’ll explore what drives your worry and help you move toward greater ease, clarity, and confidence.

Autism is not something to “fix,” but a valid way of experiencing the world. My approach is neurodivergent-affirming, honoring your unique strengths and ways of processing. Together we’ll explore how to navigate a largely neurotypical world with more ease and less masking, building strategies that reduce stress and support authenticity. Therapy is a space to deepen self-understanding, resilience, and confidence in who you are.

PTSD can leave you feeling on edge, disconnected, or caught in the past. Therapy offers a safe space to gently process what happened without rushing or re-traumatizing. I use approaches like EMDR, Brainspotting, and IFS to help the nervous system release stuck memories and restore balance. Healing is possible—you can build new patterns of safety, connection, and trust so the past no longer defines your present.
