Helping women heal from trauma, navigate motherhood, and reconnect with who they are—calm, whole, and truly themselves.

Clinical Social Worker in Vacaville, CA

About My Clients

You’ve always been the strong one—the one who takes care of everyone else, keeps it all together, and never lets the cracks show. But now you’re swinging between feeling anxious, guilty, and completely numb. You second-guess yourself constantly, then beat yourself up for not doing or being more. And beneath it all is that quiet question: “Who even am I anymore?”

My Background and Approach

I specialize in working with women who are ready to release perfectionism, process pain they’ve been carrying for too long, and reconnect with the parts of themselves they’ve silenced. Many of my clients are mothers, helpers, healthcare professionals, or partners of first responders—women who are always holding space for others and rarely have space held for them. I create a safe space for you to fully acknowledge and proccess emotions that have been bubbling under the surface. We will help you learn to regulate your nervous system and recognize what feels like for yourself. We will honor your experiences and process any traumatic memories holding you stuck using EMDR or Trainspotting. Then help you learn to recognize and trust your authentic self. After our work, my clients often say they feel calmer, more present, and more like themselves than they have in years. They stop saying “yes” out of guilt and start living in alignment with what really matters to them.
