About

Does life feel especially heavy for you or your teen right now? The pressure to keep up, stay productive, and hold everything together can leave you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected — or just stuck. Maybe you’ve been managing on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted, numb, or quietly struggling. In our work together, we won’t focus on “fixing” you — because you’re not broken. Instead, we’ll build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and strengthen your ability to regulate emotions so you can feel more grounded, connected, and aligned with who you truly are. Focusing on relational and trauma therapy models, such as EMDR therapy, I strive to help people regain regulation in their nervous system while working through the hard things in life. My approach is down-to-earth and nonjudgmental to cultivate a shared space where you can breathe, reflect, and explore what a more meaningful life could look like for you.
