Individual Therapy
The Therapeutic Space: How I Practice
Therapy with me is relational, collaborative, and rooted in the belief that if we learn to trust ourselves again, healing can happen.
I do not believe therapy is about fixing what is wrong with us. Instead, it is a space to gently explore our stories, understand the patterns that helped us survive, and reconnect with the parts of ourselves that may have been lost, hidden, or disconnected. My approach is depth-oriented and integrates Somatic Experiencing®, EMDR, attachment-focused therapy, parts work IFS Informed), mindfulness, and nature-informed practices. Together, we will explore the relationship between your body, your emotions, your relationships, and the experiences that have shaped who you are.
I believe healing happens through connection: connection with ourselves, with others, and with the natural world. Our work may include slowing down to listen to the body, exploring emotions and memories, tending to grief and transition, reconnecting with creativity and intuition, and making space for the full complexity of being human.
My approach is intentionally collaborative and humanizing. I see you as the expert of your own experience, and I see myself as a companion and thought partner, someone who helps illuminate what is already within you. I practice from a trauma-informed, liberation-oriented lens, recognizing that our experiences are shaped not only by our personal histories, but also by relationships, culture, systems, and the world around us.
Therapy is both art and science. It is a place for curiosity, honesty, compassion, and transformation, a place to come home to yourself.
Who I Work Well With
I work with adults navigating the complex and tender seasons of being human—those healing from past experiences, questioning old patterns, and longing for a deeper connection with themselves. Many of my clients are thoughtful, sensitive, creative, and deeply caring people. They are often helpers, therapists, caregivers, artists, nature lovers, or people who have learned to carry a great deal while appearing "fine" on the outside.
Many of the people who find their way to me have already done meaningful therapy. They've gained insight into their stories but are sensing there's another layer to explore, one that invites the body, nervous system, relationships, and the natural world into the healing process. f you're new to therapy, you are equally welcome here. You don't need to know the "right" words or have everything figured out before you begin. We'll move at a pace that feels supportive to your nervous system, building a therapeutic relationship grounded in curiosity, collaboration, and care.
This is where Somatic Experiencing®, EMDR, and relational therapy can offer something different. Together, we move beyond simply understanding what happened and begin gently shifting the ways those experiences continue to live within the body and shape your relationships, your sense of self, and your everyday life.
I work especially well with people navigating:
Relational trauma, complex trauma, and the lasting impact of emotionally unavailable, unpredictable, or harmful caregivers
Adult children of emotionally immature, addicted, or highly dysregulated parents
People-pleasing, fawning, perfectionism, and patterns of over-functioning that once helped you survive
Grief, loss, relationship challenges, and major life transitions
Anxiety, burnout, chronic self-doubt, and feeling disconnected from yourself
Identity, belonging, spirituality, and the search for deeper meaning, authenticity, and purpose
Young adulthood, midlife, and the thresholds that invite us to rediscover ourselves
LGBTQIA+ identity and the journey toward living more authentically
Climate anxiety, eco-grief, and finding grounding in relationship with the natural world
I have a special passion for working with women and femmes as they navigate the many seasons of their lives. Together, we may explore the impact of relational trauma, the mother wound, caregiving, boundaries, identity, burnout, perimenopause and menopause, ambition, creativity, and the lifelong process of reclaiming a relationship with yourself.
I also recognize that healing doesn't happen in isolation. Our lives are shaped not only by our personal histories, but also by our families, culture, systems of oppression, and intergenerational patterns. Therapy offers space to honor both your individual story and the larger contexts that have shaped you.
Many of my clients are longing to trust themselves again, to reconnect with their bodies, reclaim the parts of themselves that have been hidden or protected, and create lives that feel more connected, authentic, and alive.
Healing can begin at any age.
Whether you're navigating your twenties, entering a new season of midlife, or standing at a threshold of change, you're invited to take a seat, slow down, and explore what is ready to be understood, healed, and welcomed home.
