About My Clients

I work with college students, adults, and high-performing individuals or athletes navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or the lasting effects of trauma. You might feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, disconnected from yourself, or overwhelmed by pressure and expectations. Whether you are struggling with identity and purpose or simply feeling unsure of how to move forward, you do not have to navigate these challenges alone.

My Background and Approach

My background includes extensive work with adults and college students facing a wide range of psychological challenges. I specialize in trauma therapy, primarily utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help you process experiences that continue to impact how you think, feel, and relate to yourself and others. To tailor therapy to your unique needs, I also integrate parts work, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, and other evidence-based, trauma-focused modalities. You do not have to fully understand why you feel or respond the way you do before we begin. I offer a therapeutic space grounded in curiosity, compassion, and collaboration. Together, we will explore how your past experiences have shaped your present, helping you gain deeper self-understanding, heal from old wounds, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
