Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or feeling disconnected from yourself, I’m here to support you as you begin the process of healing. I take a collaborative, trauma-informed approach that’s grounded in psychodynamic theory and integrates modalities like IFS, EMDR, inner child work, CBT, and relational psychotherapy. Together, we’ll explore how trauma may live in both the mind and body, and create space for healing, nervous system regulation, and deeper self-understanding in a safe, supportive environment.
