About

You’re constantly “on” because slowing down, letting go, or taking up space doesn’t feel safe. Your mind ruminates and analyzes, trying to create a sense of control, struggling to tolerate any ounce of uncertainty. Even during moments when things are seemingly "okay" your body rarely feels at ease and your mind orients to the next "thing", an endless cycle. I help women and/or mothers who feel trapped in cycles of anxiety, perfectionism, and overthinking -find regulation, clarity, and self connection again. Using EMDR, somatic, and parts work, we’ll help your nervous system remember it’s safe to exhale. Many of my clients appear "fine" or "high performing" to the external world yet internally are burning out. These patterns often come from old experiences or traumas that taught your body it wasn’t safe to rest or make mistakes. Together, we’ll gently unwind those protective patterns so you can feel grounded and present.
