Heal the past, change your patterns, and reclaim your life.

If you find yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships or struggling with how you see yourself, it’s often rooted in earlier experiences—not a lack of effort or awareness.

I specialize in helping adults heal from childhood and relational trauma, including the impact of emotionally unsafe or toxic relationships. These patterns can show up as difficulty setting boundaries, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or feeling stuck in cycles that don’t reflect who you want to be.

My approach goes beyond insight alone. We focus on how these patterns are held in both the mind and body, and work toward meaningful, lasting change—so you can feel more grounded, make clearer decisions, and build healthier, more secure relationships.

I work in a trauma-informed, collaborative, and direct way. Therapy with me is a space for honesty, depth, and real change—not just temporary relief.

This work is a good fit if you’re ready to look beneath the surface, understand yourself more deeply, and actively shift the patterns that have been holding you back.
I am trained in EMDR therapy, which is highly effective for processing trauma, and I also integrate person-centered and evidence-based approaches to support your growth. With a background in addiction counseling and experience working with individuals involved in the criminal justice system, I understand the courage it takes to seek change and the importance of meeting each person exactly where they are.

Together, we’ll work toward building resilience, uncovering strengths, and creating lasting change so you can move forward with greater clarity, peace, and self-trust.
