Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming. Maybe you are experiencing anxiety, hopelessness, or can't quite put a finger on what you are feeling. Maybe you have experiences with PTSD, trauma, or dissociation. Maybe you've been on a path of healing for a long time, or maybe you just started today. I want to support your connection to your own innate inner wisdom that holds the keys to healing the wounds that keep you from where you want to be or where you want to go next.

IFS is an evidenced based therapeutic model that seeks to support understanding the complexities of each individual through their parts. Through this work, we seek to extend curiosity, compassion, and care towards our unique parts that make us whole. In my work as a trauma therapist and as a client, I have found the IFS model a deeply validating, normalizing, and gentle way to work through processing trauma.
Embodied practices that move beyond talk therapy are vital to how I help clients move towards healing trauma. Our bodies hold trauma and also hold the keys to our healing. Through somatic interventions, we will get creative in how we can use your own innate resilience to connect with your core self and move toward the best version of you available.
Working with relationships is a unique opportunity to enter the venn diagram where the experiences of two individuals meet. I have experience in work with couples where trauma or mental health concerns are impacting relational function. I utilized EFT, attachment, and interpersonal interventions to help improve communication, connection, and understanding between partners.

The focus of my practice is trauma processing and supporting clients toward resolving what feels unresolvable. I work with clients with acute, chronic, complex, and systemic/ancestral trauma presentations as well as dissociative/depersonalized presentations and traumagenic personality disorders. Central to my practice is providing a stable, dependable, and compassionate relationship in order to begin the healing process. As Yalom says “it’s the relationship that heals".
Working with relationships is a unique opportunity to enter the venn diagram where the experiences of two individuals meet. I have experience in work with couples where trauma or mental health concerns are impacting relational function. I see relationship therapy as a unique opportunity to help improve how you function together and work to heal old attachment wounds. I utilize EFT and family systems frameworks to increase your understanding of one another and your emotional experiences.
Do you find yourself in a perpetual cycle of hyper-vigilance, panic, or worry? Feeling keyed up or on edge? Do you worry about how others are perceiving you or have fears that you might be "the problem"? From both a therapist and deeply personal perspective, I understand how difficult day to day can be when you are experiencing anxiety - whether it be a new occurrence or a lifelong struggle. Let's work together to help better unstick those stuck anxious parts trying to help!
