As a therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed perspective, which means I create a safe, supportive space where your story is honored — not judged.

​

I often draw from a blend of powerful, evidence-based models depending on your unique needs and goals, including:

  • Narrative Therapy, which helps you re-author your story and reconnect with your strengths and values.

  • Solution-Focused Therapy, where we focus on what’s working and build on small steps of progress toward meaningful change.

  • Informed Shame Therapy, to help you recognize, understand, and gently release toxic shame rooted in past experiences.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a powerful method for processing trauma and reducing emotional distress.

  • Focusing Therapy, which supports deep body awareness and emotional healing by helping you tune into your inner felt sense.

​

I work through a collaborative, client-centered lens, always open to exploring what model or approach resonates most with you. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all — together, we’ll find the path that supports your healing, growth, and resilience.

​

Whether you're seeking healing from trauma, navigating a major life transition, struggling in a relationship, or simply feeling stuck — I’m here to walk alongside you.
