Psychotherapist  | EMDR

​“I work with individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, and relationship challenges. When life feels heavy or past experiences seem to hold you back, it’s easy to feel disconnected from yourself and unsure of how to move forward. I’m here to offer a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to begin healing.

​

I take a warm, integrative, and trauma-informed approach to therapy, bringing in evidence-based tools while honoring your unique experiences. I’m trained in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful approach to helping clients process trauma and distressing life experiences. I also have Level 2 training in the Gottman Method to support couples in breaking negative patterns, enhancing emotional intimacy, and building lasting, healthy relationships. I draw from various modalities such as Parts Work, Attachment Theory, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness to guide our work in a way that’s meaningful, collaborative, and personalized.

​

I hold deep respect for the courage it takes to step into the therapy space. I’ll meet you with empathy, curiosity, and practical tools to support your growth. I believe that you’re not here to be “fixed” because you are already whole. Therapy is about reconnecting with that wholeness and creating space for healing, clarity, and empowerment.

​

Outside of the therapy room, I love being by the ocean, baking, spending time with loved ones, and going on walks with my yellow lab!”
