We all long for deep, authentic connections, but we can often get stuck in old trauma-based patterns with those we love. We end up sacrificing our needs, avoiding vulnerability, or "acting out" in ways we don't understand. I enjoy helping people learn to trust their intuition, build self-esteem, communicate effectively, and create meaningful boundaries and connections in relationships. I work with individuals and couples of all ages, backgrounds, and identities. Together, we can identify new tools for navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and bodily symptoms rooted in unresolved trauma.
I am a trauma-informed, psychodynamic therapist with a background in Somatic (body-oriented) Psychology. My values are centered on building a strong, collaborative relationship as we work towards your goals. Bringing a presence that is validating, curious, and warm, I am trained in therapeutic approaches that specialize in healing from traumatic experiences.
Many people seek therapy to gain deeper insight about the past, while others wish for more concrete ways to move forward. I believe both approaches are valuable, and I tend to integrate both in my practice. My hope is for each client to leave therapy feeling equipped for navigating life's twists and turns with a deep sense of confidence and self-compassion.
