Life brings seasons of transition, emotional weight, and moments of feeling lost. Therapy offers a place to pause, reflect, and begin making sense of what’s stirring beneath the surface. My approach is trauma-informed and rooted in empathy, mutual respect, and a belief that meaningful change grows from connection. I work with deep-feelers, over-thinkers, perfectionists, and trauma-survivors who seek grounded support, compassionate listening, and help for managing big emotions. This often looks like experiencing the same emotions again and again, cycling through the same thought loops, or repeating painful behaviors tied to childhood trauma or limiting beliefs. You want to feel safe, loved and lovable, at peace with yourself, and empowered to live authentically.

 

I operate from an integrated theoretical orientation with a foundation in person-centered therapy. As a therapist, I am always person-centered in my demonstration of empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard. I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, narrative, relational, and parts work approaches to help clients deepen self-understanding, foster resilience, and learn to see themselves through loving eyes as they untangle the emotional and relational dynamics that shape how they move through the world. I offer support around life transitions, grief and loss, parenting, trauma, betrayal, and women's issues.

​

I have additional certifications in Holistic Health coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and Professional Recovery coaching from the International Association of Professional Recovery Coaches. My background shapes my understanding of how emotional pain often lives in the body, and how disconnection from self can show up through self-criticism, chronic overwhelm, or striving to prove worth through achievement. My work also reflects decades of lived experience, personal healing, and a deep belief in the power of radical self-compassion—an approach that helps empower clients to move through life with more clarity and authenticity. I bring empathy, warmth, and a collaborative spirit to this work—honoring each person’s unique process with care and respect.

​Untreated trauma can hold you in the grips of paralyzing limiting beliefs: you're not good enough, smart enough, together enough, worthy enough. Therapy can help you replace those old narratives and anchor new, loving beliefs.​

​

Together, we will practice trauma-informed habits that soothe your nervous system. We work on building self-confidence and self-compassion by identifying childhood wounds, dialoguing with your inner parts, recognizing trauma responses and limiting beliefs, and learning to hold all your parts with radical self love instead of shame.​

​

I’m here to offer a safe space for the beautiful, messy, tender work of being human. Please reach out to book a consultation or an initial session with me.​​​​​
