Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected? You don’t have to navigate it alone.

I help individuals increase awareness of unhelpful patterns, clarify goals and desires, and reduce anxiety and stress. My approach draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral therapy techniques, and Somatic experiencing to support healing mentally, spiritually, and physically. As a body-based therapist, I use somatic approaches to support nervous system regulation and deeper healing from trauma-related experiences.

🔹

Together, we’ll create a tailored plan for YOU and build tools for lasting change.

I show up authentically, with warmth and relatability—and when it fits, I believe laughter can be a powerful part of the healing process.

🔹

Whether you’re struggling with uncertainty in relationships, feeling helpless or stuck, or simply longing to feel more connected to yourself and others, I’m here to help.
