I work with clients who are working through PTSD, depression, anxiety, and attachment injuries from betrayal and other relational traumas. I treat those with chronic illness issues, family estrangement, and processing post-cultic deconstruction.

I am certified in treating religious trauma through the Global Center for Religious Research. I am also certified to offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) through Fluence Journey. I have level 1 training in EMDR through an EMDRIA qualified provider.
I know firsthand that it's possible for remarkable life change, and am excited to walk with my clients in a new direction. I work from a psychobiosocial framework, seeing people as wholly unique individuals in the context of their specific lives. Let’s reauthor your story and get you aligned with a narrative you are in charge of.
