About My Clients

I offer somatic, trauma-focused, therapy for couples, loved ones, individuals, and teens with complex and relational trauma. I help relationships of all configurations (couples, parent/child, ENM) interrupt negative patterns, stabilize their relationship(s), address the unhelpful patterns and mental distress that gets in the way of healthy relating, increase self- and co-regulation skills, and find more meaningful ways of connecting. I also work with adults and teens with the same goals.

My Background and Approach

My approach is kind, curious, steady, relational, playful, and focused on understanding and healing from complex and relational trauma. In our sessions, I use a combination of somatics, EMDR, IFS inspired parts-work, and Relational Somatic Healing (RSH) to help with deep and lasting change.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Healing is mysterious, organic, and reliable. Our bodies already know how to heal, but we need to have the right supports in place to help us through the process. Finding the right therapist can take time and be daunting. If you find a good match, though, it can be life-changing. You should feel your therapists gets you. You should also feel the sessions are helpful, even if you don’t know how yet and when they are hard, it should feel like the good kind of hard and not overwhelming. In this process of searching for a therapist, I encourage you to trust your gut. Your therapist will have skills and tools, but not know you better than you. Whether you are interested in the exploring the option of working together or finding someone who might be the right fit for you, please reach out. I am not invested in you working with me. I am invested in you working with someone who can really help. You can and deserve to heal.
