You’re not living the life you want. You’re unhappy, but you’re unsure why. At times, we can feel lost, numb, and disconnected from ourselves. There can be many reasons for this and through our work together, we will understand what these are and how to reconnect, to live a vibrant life. It’s been my experience that trauma lives in the body, as well as the mind. When we treat only the thoughts or the pictures in our heads, the deepest part of what is hurt isn't heard. Perhaps, no matter how many times you've talked about past trauma, it still feels raw. Something just isn’t healing. You feel stuck despite trying everything to help.

As a trauma therapist, including therapy for sexual abuse and postpartum depression, I use EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to find the root cause of your pain. Our work together heals childhood and recent trauma so you can live in the present as a whole and empowered self. The therapy I use engages your mind and body, addressing trauma at its core.

My goal is to support you in healing past wounds, so you can embrace the present with a renewed sense of wholeness and empowerment. My approach is designed to support you in exploring your inner world, uncovering your strengths, and achieving meaningful change. Together, we will navigate life’s challenges and embrace a life that is fulfilling and connected.
