About me
I am a trauma-informed therapist helping those who are tired of surviving and want to feel more grounded, connected, and emotionally clear. I believe therapy works best when clients feel emotionally safe, understood, and actively involved in the process. My style is compassionate, direct when helpful, and grounded in practical change. I welcome all people, and work with LGBTQ individuals, trauma clients, those experiencing extreme stress or shutdown and numbness.
Life can feel incredibly heavy when you’ve been carrying stress, emotional pain, or exhaustion for a long time. You may be used to pushing through, taking care of others, or trying to hold everything together while quietly feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or burned out inside.
I work with those who are navigating burnout, depression, trauma, anxiety, and chronic emotional stress. Many of my clients are thoughtful, caring people who have spent years surviving difficult experiences, overextending themselves, or feeling stuck in patterns that leave them emotionally drained.
My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe healing happens in spaces where people feel safe enough to slow down, be honest about what they’re carrying, and experience support without judgment. Together, we’ll work to better understand your experiences, build healthier coping patterns, strengthen self-compassion, and help you reconnect with yourself in a more grounded and sustainable way.
You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Reaching out can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve been carrying things alone for so long. If you’re looking for a supportive space to heal, process, and move forward, I’d be happy to connect with you.
