My practice incorporates elements of Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Somatic Therapy and Logo therapy.
Traumatic experiences and stress can cause disconnection between the body and the mind. Our inner lives as well as our outer lives become difficult to navigate. Life becomes about survival, cue sympathetic nervous system: fight, flight or freeze. Thriving and living a full life of purpose, meaning and authenticity can become an overwhelming challenge. I work with clients who are disconnected from themselves as a result of their eating disorders to create a deep connection to their thoughts, feelings and bodies in order to live big, full, authentic and juicy lives.

My therapeutic style is to show up as myself - as a real person. I'm a human too, and I know how hard it is. I'm not the type to tell you what you should or shouldn't do. My hope is that we build a relationship where you feel comfortable showing up as your whole self - ugly parts included. Trust me, I have them too. I pride myself on providing a non-judgmental and accepting space where you can cry, yell, laugh, scream, and do whatever else you need. I am trauma-informed and work primarily from a mindfulness-based and somatic orientation. I have received training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.

I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with mood dysregulation , depression/anxiety, personality disorders, trauma, and those who want to see themselves in a more empowering light.

“I love my therapist, but we’ve hit a plateau,” potential clients often say when reaching out to me. Or they’re tired of being treated like they’re broken. If you’ve spent years in therapy and are ready to go deeper and experience profound shifts and lasting change, try mindfulness-based, somatic (body-mind) psychotherapy and inner parts work. In short time, most new clients say, “Wow, that was very different from what I expected!”—in a positive way. If you’re a highly sensitive person (HSP), empath, or old soul yearning to be truly understood and are ready to process more deeply and talk and analyze less, welcome!

I have experience in many modalities, from CBT, DBT, EMDR, and somatic therapy approaches.
My ideal client aims to engage in an active partnership to build self-awareness and take action to make a change. I will give you feedback and challenge you, which is not everyone’s cup of tea! I work best with those suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, overwhelm, trauma, or emotional flooding. Many of my clients report that our work helped them shift from survival mode to a sense of thriving. I suggest homework; your progress is based on your willingness to practice. The ideal client for my strengths is someone who wants to learn and shift by discovering tangible skills and techniques they can use in their own lives.

While it is important to bring attention to the mind, I especially enjoy somatic (body-based) therapeutic practices because one, there is an innate wisdom our body has to offer and two, the body has a story to tell… are you ready to listen? Other therapeutic approaches I use are IFS, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Yoga Therapy, and more.
“The path isn’t a straight line; it’s a spiral. You continually come back to things you thought you understood and see deeper truths.” Many of my clients have tried therapy before and are ready to dive deeper with me by using holistic approaches that are trauma informed and somatic. My specialties include: trauma/C-PTSD, relationship issues, anxiety, ecological despair, LGBTQIA+, gender identity, and more. As a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I am deeply passionate about working with clients who are a part of the community.

This is the first somatic program for eating disorder recovery, teaching skills of embodiment and self-compassion which are vital for sustained recovery.
At various points in life, we all encounter moments of feeling stuck or struggling. I am a firm believer that every individual possesses an inner wisdom capable of navigating life’s greatest challenges. However, undue stress and prolonged overwhelm can sometimes hinder our ability to access this inner resource on our own. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I recognize that meaningful progress requires safety and grounding. I will guide you in sharing and exploring at a pace that feels secure for you and your nervous system within a compassionate, judgment-free space.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
