I help clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion, curiosity, and a deep understanding of how trauma shapes the mind and body. Whether you’re coping with PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, or major life transitions, therapy with me offers a safe space to feel seen, understood, and supported.
My approach is trauma-informed and integrative. I draw from DBT (I’m DBT-certified), Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to help you build emotional regulation, strengthen your inner resources, and reconnect with parts of yourself that may feel overwhelmed, shut down, or stuck in survival mode.
Together, we’ll work at your pace to make sense of your experiences, reduce the intensity of trauma responses, and move toward healing, stability, and meaningful growth.
