Therapy is an opportunity for clarity and self-improvement, and I'm here to guide you through this transformative journey. I genuinely love what I do, which makes me the right person to support you. I am your teammate in achieving your personal goals—not your partner's, your parent's, or your friend's goals, but your own. As someone trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I offer a compassionate and effective approach to healing.

IFS uses techniques to get to know all the different sides of you and help them work together. EMDR uses guided eye movements to help process and alleviate the distress from traumatic memories, making it easier for you to move forward with your life. Think of it as a way to reprocess painful memories so they no longer hold power over you.
I am here to listen, validate, challenge, and help you grow into the person you want to be. Together, we can work on healing the body, mind, and soul. I believe you possess natural strengths that may be hidden now, and with time, I can help you reveal and apply them to your daily life.
