About

Starting therapy for the first time can feel overwhelming, but it’s really just a space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a way that feels safe and supportive. I specialize in working with people who have experienced childhood or relational trauma, helping them understand how those past experiences might still be affecting them today. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood and empowered to move forward in a way that feels right for you. I use a trauma-centered inner child approach to explore and heal parts of you that felt unseen, unheard, or wounded in early relationships. I integrate attachment-based, evidence-informed models to support relational healing. I am also a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist-Candidate, trained to support those facing problematic sexual behaviors.
