I want to welcome adults navigating trauma, sexual wellness, intimacy concerns, identity exploration, neurodivergence, and self-esteem to a space just for them. You might appear steady on the outside while carrying experiences that still shape how safe connection feels or how you see yourself. I’m especially passionate about helping people unlearn limiting narratives so they can reconnect with themselves in ways that feel more authentic and self-directed.
Specialties
I believe healing happens in connection. I try to create a therapy space that feels authentic, attuned, and collaborative. As we work together, we pay attention to what shows up in our conversations and relationship, which can offer insight into patterns around trust, safety, intimacy, and self-expression. Over time, therapy becomes a place to try new ways of relating and experience what it feels like to be seen and understood without judgment.
I have advanced training in EMDR, an evidence-based trauma therapy that helps your nervous system reprocess distressing experiences so they feel less activating or intrusive. Rather than repeatedly retelling your story, EMDR works with how memories are stored in the brain and body. When it feels appropriate, we can integrate EMDR thoughtfully and collaboratively, always honoring your readiness and sense of control.
Trauma and stress are not only held in memory but in the body. I incorporate somatic approaches that help you tune into physical sensations, nervous system responses, and embodied emotions. As you begin noticing how your body signals safety, tension, desire, or protection, new possibilities for healing and regulation can emerge. Over time, many people begin to experience their body as a source of information and self-trust rather than something to disconnect from.
Mindfulness helps us slow down and notice thoughts, emotions, and sensations with curiosity rather than judgment. I integrate mindfulness practices to support greater awareness and emotional flexibility, allowing you to respond with intention instead of reacting from old survival patterns. Over time, this can strengthen your ability to stay present with difficult experiences while remaining grounded in yourself.
Internal Family Systems helps us understand the different “parts” of you that developed to protect, cope, or survive. In our work, we approach these parts with curiosity and compassion, recognizing that each one formed for a reason. This often softens inner conflict and strengthens your sense of self-leadership. IFS can be especially helpful for trauma, identity, and intimacy work, supporting a more integrated and grounded relationship with yourself.

When trauma continues to shape how safe you feel, how you connect, or how you see yourself, carrying it alone can be exhausting. In our work together, we move with care and intention, giving you space to process what you’ve lived through so it begins to have less control over your present. If it feels supportive, we can integrate approaches like EMDR, somatic work, or mindfulness-based therapy, always at a pace that respects your comfort.
Healing after sexual abuse requires care, patience, and deep respect for your boundaries. With a background in survivor advocacy, I offer trauma-informed therapy that centers your voice and autonomy. Together, we gently process what you’ve experienced in a way that restores choice, rebuilds trust in yourself, and supports a renewed sense of safety in your body and relationships, including the relationship you have with yourself.
If intimacy feels confusing, pressured, painful, or disconnected, you deserve a place to explore that without shame. As a trained sex therapist, I help you understand how past experiences, cultural messages, and nervous system responses may be shaping your sexual wellbeing. Our work focuses on building clarity, confidence in your boundaries, and a more connected relationship with desire and pleasure at a pace that feels right for you.
When self-doubt, self-criticism, or old narratives shape how you see yourself, they can quietly limit how fully you show up in your life and relationships. In therapy, we explore where those beliefs began and how they were formed, often noticing how they once helped you stay protected. Together, we begin loosening their grip and building a more compassionate sense of self so you can move through life with greater confidence in your voice and needs.
Your relationship with your body may carry the imprint of trauma, cultural messages, or experiences that left you feeling disconnected or critical of yourself. In therapy, we gently explore how those influences shaped the way you experience your body. Over time, the goal is to rebuild body awareness, strengthen self-trust, and create a more compassionate relationship with your body so you can feel more at home in yourself.
