I support hyper-independent individuals: overcome perfectionism, address unresolved childhood trauma, and reconnect with their emotions so they can find balance and break free from old patterns.
my clients.
Many clients I work with are struggling with the effects of childhood and relational trauma, which may include anxiety, fear of abandonment, difficulty setting boundaries, and low self-esteem. This type of trauma can result from neglect, abuse, betrayal, or abandonment, and it deeply affects a person's ability to form healthy, secure attachments with others later in life.
my approach.
I approach therapy with a trauma-informed perspective, drawing from my training in EMDR, IFS and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
Additionally, as a Certified Herbalist and Specialist in Nutritional & Integrative Medicine, I walk with you through practical strategies to improve focus, mood, sleep, and behavior by addressing the connections between gut health and the brain.
I believe in endless growth and change. Passionate about childhood trauma and its impact, I'm dedicated to supporting you through your healing journey. Drawing from my own lived experiences, I offer insights and empathy to those navigating similar paths.
