About

You hold it all together, until you can’t. Maybe spirals of anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or shame are weighing on you. Your mind may feel hijacked by OCD and intrusive thoughts. Or perhaps you’ve reached a point where your body is saying “enough,” with overwhelm, shutdown, or a sense of disconnection you can’t quite name. You’re not broken. Your distress makes sense. Healing is possible. I support adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, chronic illness, and living with the lingering effects of childhood trauma. Together, we'll slow down, deepen understanding, and build greater safety and trust in yourself. View 4 Photos My work is relational and collaborative, grounded in somatic therapy, IFS (parts work), and nervous system healing. This means I honor your inner wisdom, your pacing, and attune to what’s showing up in the present moment - both in your body and what's happening between us. For clients with OCD, I offer evidence-based treatment using I-CBT and ACT.
