I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who has worked with children, teens, and adults for years. One thing I know to be true is that healing happens when we feel seen, safe, and accepted exactly as we are. My style is warm, real, and collaborative. I meet you where you are, and we move at your pace.

I work primarily with adolescents, teens, and women who have experienced trauma and are ready for something to shift. Many of the people I work with are insightful, capable, and high functioning, yet feel stuck in patterns that do not make sense. Anxiety that will not quiet down. Emotional overwhelm that seems to come out of nowhere. Shutting down, people pleasing, or feeling disconnected from your body. These are not flaws or failures. They are learned survival responses shaped by what you have lived through.

My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in EMDR therapy, which allows us to work with how trauma lives in the nervous system, not just in thoughts or memories. I have seen how life-changing it can be for people who feel stuck in old patterns or memories and have experienced the power of EMDR personally, which is one of the reasons I am so passionate about this work.

Therapy with me is not about pushing you before you are ready or forcing healing to happen. It is about building safety, trust, and a sense of control in your own body and mind. You do not need to have the right words, a clear goal, or a perfect explanation of what hurts. Showing up as you are is enough. Healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about coming home to yourself.
