Life can feel overwhelming and lonely. When you’ve been through difficult or traumatic experiences, it’s common to feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. Trying to figure everything out on your own can feel impossible—and you don’t have to.
As a trauma psychotherapist, my goal is to help you get relief, heal from trauma and PTSD (including complex PTSD), and create more meaning and fulfillment in your relationships. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels safe and supportive.
In our work together, we’ll honor the strengths and resilience that helped you survive, while also exploring how these old coping patterns may now be holding you back. Using a blend of nervous system regulation, somatic (body-based) therapy, and insight, we’ll work toward lasting healing and growth.
You’ll gain practical tools and grounding skills to handle overwhelming emotions, triggers, or stressful situations with more confidence.
My practice is inclusive and affirming. I welcome adult individuals, couples, and relational systems—including LGBTQ+ clients—who are navigating the impacts of trauma, relational disconnection, or feeling at an impasse.
It’s a privilege to walk alongside you as you build a life that feels meaningful and connected.
