Someone who's endured trauma, from childhood, relationships, or life events, burdened by unresolved emotions and limiting beliefs. Your goal is not just to heal wounds but to emerge stronger, more resilient, and empowered to live a fulfilling life. You want to break free from the chains of your past, reclaim inner peace, and step into a future filled with purpose and joy.

I incorporate a holistic approach integrating mindfulness, EMDR, and strengths-based therapy. With mindfulness, you'll cultivate a connection to the present moment and ease the grip of anxiety. EMDR empowers you to process traumas, rewriting the narrative of your life story for a brighter future. Strengths-based recognizes how your innate capabilities can help you achieve goals in your life.
