About
I support women who are exhausted from overthinking, second-guessing themselves, and feeling like they’re never quite enough. You might feel like others think you have it all together but on the inside, you’re tired of bracing, people-pleasing, and carrying the weight of the past. Many of the women I work with grew up walking on eggshells, were chronically invalidated or dismissed, or experienced sexual trauma, neglect, or emotionally unsafe relationships. Even now, your body may react as if you’re still back there. Insight alone hasn’t created the relief you hoped for. I help women untangle the past so it stops running the present. Using EMDR blended with somatic and parts-based approaches, we work beyond what talk therapy can offer to help your nervous system update and release what it’s been holding. This science backed approach can reduce panic, shame, emotional reactivity, and self-doubt while strengthening confidence and boundaries. I offer focused intensives for women ready to reclaim their time, energy, and sense of self. Spend less time in treatment overall with longer appointments, scheduled less frequently. You don’t need more coping skills. You need deep, nervous system healing and you deserve freedom. Schedule a free consultation to find out if EMDR is the right fit for you. Specialties: I help women recover from adverse experiences such as sexual abuse or assault, as well as complex or developmental trauma stemming from negative experiences during formative years. Credentials & Experience: I'm an EMDR certified clinician and an EMDR Approved Consultant. I've been working with individuals impacted by trauma for over 16 years.
