What it is like to work together

Therapy with me is designed to feel grounded and collaborative. From our first session, my goal is to create a space where you feel emotionally safe, respected, and supported— especially if you have had past therapy experiences that have felt overwhelming, inauthentic or ineffective. My practice is intentionally affirming and welcomes clients from all identities, backgrounds and life experiences.

I specialize in working with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but feel stuck, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected on the inside. Many of my clients have done therapy before and are ready for something deeper—therapy that goes beyond talking and helps the nervous system truly heal.

Our work together is trauma-informed and paced to your nervous system. I integrate EMDR therapy, somatic approaches, and emotional regulation skills to help you process unresolved experiences from your past, reduce anxiety, and build a greater sense of safety and self-trust. You will never be pushed to relive anything before you’re ready, and your individual needs are central to every part of the process

Over time, many clients report:

  • Less emotional reactivity and an improved relationship with anxiety

  • Improved boundaries and self-confidence

  • A stronger connection to their body and intuition

  • Relief from trauma symptoms, overwhelm, and burnout

  • A greater sense of clarity, calm and resilience

  • Ability to overcome barriers that have prevented them from making change

Whether you are navigating trauma, anxiety, depressions, relationship patterns, or major life transitions, therapy here is not about fixing you—it is about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that already hold wisdom, strength, and capacity for healing.

If you are looking for EMDR therapy, somatic trauma therapy, or a therapist who understands how trauma live in the body, this work is designed to meet you where you are and to support lasting change.
