I understand the importance of feeling seen, heard, and truly cared for. These desires are deeply rooted in our need to find safety within ourselves, in our relationships, and in the world. Your sense of safety is often shaped by fight, flight, and freeze responses, which develop as protective mechanisms. My trauma-informed approach to therapy honors these responses and the role they play in how you navigate life. Through a blend of CBT and EMDR, I offer an integrative approach that addresses thoughts, feelings, behavior, neurobiology, and the body. Together, we’ll work to deepen your self-awareness, identify patterns that may no longer serve you, and foster resilience on your journey to healing. I promote inclusivity of all races, genders, sexual orientations, spiritual practices, and prioritize your comfort & feelings of safety.
