Searching for Help?
If you feel stuck, confused and a little bit desperate, welcome.
I help adults who are overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, painful relationships or spiritual harm using EMDR & somatic tools.
We’ll work together to help today while we also go deep down to the roots for transformational healing - at both the brain and body levels.

Ready for change?
You’ve tried a lot of things already: googling symptoms, consulting AI, reading books, scrolling TikTok, venting to friends, praying in the dark - but it’s all still right there under the surface, weighing you down. Now you’re just tired of feeling overwhelmed.
But what if this turned out to be your darkest-before-dawn moment?
What if the search for relief does finally lead to helpful help?
What if healing is just ahead?
I’m deeply passionate about people finding healing - you can read more about me here. I work from a compassion-based lens that assumes you’re doing the best you can today, while also looking forward to the work we’ll do to make tomorrow better. You’re looking for therapy because you want to get well and move on with life - so let’s get moving toward that!

Read more about how I work with these struggles:
-
Anxiety feels like it affects everything: your brain, your body and your relationships. It’s exhausting.
But therapy is a space to slow down your brain, make sense of what's happening in your body, and practice new responses with guidance & support. Whether your anxiety is primarily cognitive (like worrying) or primarily physical (like muscle tension), or a mixture of the two, we’ll figure out what’s happening for you!
-
Trauma isn't just what happened to you – it's also what happened to your nervous system. If you have been to therapy before but feel like you aren't better, you may need a treatment that blends both brain and body.
That’s exactly what tools like EMDR and somatic work do: they bring your whole self into the room for healing. Helping people heal from trauma is one of my deepest passions in life - I’d love for you to find healing too!
-
Humans are deeply wired to seek supportive relationships, but relationships can also become places of enormous pain and confusion.
Whether you’re grappling with the legacy of an abusive relationship, a tense romantic relationship, bewildering family interactions, or even estrangement with relatives, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
-
Spiritual communities can be tremendously life-giving. But also sometimes: devastating, leaving lasting scars on your brain and body too.
Therapy can be a place to wrestle, grieve and move toward healing so that trauma and loss can transform into post-traumatic growth.
Finding a therapist can be challenging. You need someone who understands your situation and has the expertise to help, and you also need someone you feel safe and comfortable with. There’s a bewildering array of credentials, so many different acronyms for treatments (what’s EMDR, again?!) and the paralysis of not knowing which person is going to feel okay to sit down with in vulnerability, week after week.
To help you make this decision, I offer free consultations to all new clients so you can enter therapy with confidence and relief, already knowing that you’re in the right place. Read more about me here then reach out today to get your first appointment scheduled!
