If relationships with personal and professionals leave you feeling anxious, hyperaware, or afraid of being alone, Together we’ll explore the emotional & nervous-system patterns triggered by closeness. Using an attachment- and trauma-informed approach, we’ll process relational wounds, reduce reactivity, & build greater security & emotional stability.

Clients often describe me as warm, deeply attuned, and insightful. I help you recognize attachment patterns shaped by childhood experiences, gently challenge unhealthy relational behaviors, and support lasting change. As you enter the new year, therapy can be a space to break old cycles and build safer, more secure relationships.

I became a therapist because I’ve witnessed how childhood trauma and relational wounds can shape a life, leaving people stuck in fear, anxiety, and patterns of abandonment. I’m passionate about guiding clients to heal, reclaim their power, and build secure, fulfilling relationships with themselves and others.

I provide a warm, trauma-informed space utilizing evidence based modalities like EMDR, DBT, CPT, and EFT for healing from childhood and relational wounds. I specialize in helping clients with anxious attachment, abandonment issues, and patterns of hypervigilance or reactivity, guiding them toward emotional balance, self-trust, and healthier relationships.
