I love offering what I've learned about the breath and the body to others who have lived in their heads and pushed away their somatic experiences.
In our sessions together, I create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences, process your emotions, and develop coping skills to navigate the effects of trauma. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and somatic interventions, to help you heal on a holistic level. The ultimate goal is to empower you to reclaim your sense of safety, agency, and well-being.

I guide most of my work through evidence based practices such as IFS, EMDR, and Somatic experiencing to rebuild the mind and body connection and create long term changes.
Do you feel like you logically understand why you are the way you are and yet still struggle with emotion identification, feeling emotions in your body, and making larger changes? Therapy provides a therapeutic relationship that can help guide you toward building a better connection and understanding of yourself. Do you want to have a better sense of identity? A better connection with you body? A sense of acceptance with your trauma? Therapy can provide you with the tools to discover yourself through your mental and physical wellness.

As a somatic psychotherapist, I focus on supporting adults grappling with persistent stress, anxiety, trauma, and grief.
Navigating the complexities of the human experience, your relationship to connection and meaning feels complicated and often challenging. You might be feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, sad and/or a little lost. You want to get un-stuck, or slow down, or feel more connected. You’ve been trying for a long time, and it’s been really hard. I see you. You make sense to me. You don't have to bear that burden alone.

I specialize in EMDR (processes traumatic memories/core beliefs), Internal Family Systems Therapy (systems of protective and wounded inner parts led by a core Self), and Mindfulness-Based Somatic Therapy (emotions/sensations in the body in the present moment). I also use a variety of other forms of psychotherapy including Hakomi, Contemplative, Person-Centered (Rogerian), Existential, Relational Life Therapy, and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I provide a safe, nonjudgemental space for you to turn toward your experience. A whole body-mind approach has the ability to transform, much more than talk therapy alone.

The folks I work with are those who are struggling with feeling connected to themselves and others. Often my clients have difficulty being in the present moment, instead finding themselves lost inside their mind, imagination, or in the past or future. There's often a deep longing to be connected to others but feel as if there's something in the way. Sometimes my clients feel usure of or inconsistent in who they are, uncertain of what they want and have struggled to find happiness and contentment in life. For my clients, life can often feel blurry or fuzzy with difficulty remembering the recent or distant past.
