I believe that focusing my work in specific areas allows me to serve clients with greater depth and care. By specializing in experiences I know deeply, I bring both skill and compassion to our work together, helping you feel seen, understood, and supported in ways that truly fit your needs.

Our culture places immense pressure on women to carry more than they should, often at the expense of their own needs.

My work is centered on supporting women as they navigate the emotional and relational demands of modern life. I specialize in helping women work through anxiety, burnout, identity shifts, and the emotional transitions that often accompany different seasons of adulthood.

Grounded in psychodynamic understanding and supported by evidence-based approaches, my work honors both your inner experience and the external pressures shaping your life, creating space for reflection, clarity, and lasting change.

Grief?

Grief can take many forms, and not all of them are immediately recognized or understood.

Anticipatory grief

Grief that arises before a loss has occurred, often experienced when facing terminal illness, late-stage aging, or the gradual changes that signal an impending goodbye.

Loss of a loved one

Grief following the death of a partner, parent, child, sibling, or close friend. This kind of loss can feel disorienting, deeply personal, and life-altering.

Disenfranchised grief

Losses that are often minimized or unacknowledged by society, such as miscarriage, estrangement, infertility, or the loss of a beloved pet, yet can be just as profound.

Unfulfilled roles

Grief connected to roles deeply longed for, such as motherhood, partnership, or family life, that were hoped for but not realized.

Healing Trauma

Trauma work in therapy is about gently making sense of what your body and mind have been carrying, often for a long time. It’s not about reliving the past, it’s about creating safety in the present, understanding how earlier experiences continue to shape current patterns, and learning to respond rather than react.

Together, we build tools for calm, resilience, and reconnection to your authentic self.

Here’s what we’ll do together

Trauma-focused therapy integrates somatic approaches, recognizing that painful experiences are held not only in memory but also in the body. Our work centers on restoring a sense of safety and regulation through evidence-based practices such as mindfulness, body awareness, and somatic techniques.

As stored tension is gently noticed and released, many clients experience both emotional integration and physiological calm, often rebuilding trust in themselves and in their relationships.

Healing happens at your pace, in a space designed for safety and care.

Therapy for Helping Professionals

The Importance of Inner Work for Clinicians

Therapists are shaped not only by education and experience, but also by their own personal histories. Unresolved pain, early attachment dynamics, or past relational trauma can sometimes echo within the therapeutic relationship, subtly influencing how we attune, interpret, and respond. Engaging in your own therapy provides an opportunity to bring these patterns into awareness, strengthening both your emotional presence and your clinical effectiveness.

Doing this work is not a sign of deficiency, it’s a hallmark of integrity, humility, and depth in our profession.

Even those who hold space for others deserve a place to rest, reflect, and heal. I offer therapy for therapists, supervisors, and helping professionals who are navigating burnout, compassion fatigue, or the emotional weight of this work.

These sessions are grounded in psychodynamic and trauma-responsive care, creating a confidential space where you can explore your own experiences outside the role of caretaker. Together, we focus on restoring balance, deepening self-awareness, and reconnecting with the purpose and meaning that led you into this field in the first place.

Relationships & Connection

Relationships are where our deepest patterns and needs are revealed, our longing to be understood, valued, and safe. In therapy, we focus on emotional attunement: helping partners slow down, listen differently, and respond with empathy rather than defense. Grounded in trauma-informed care, this work explores how past experiences and unspoken wounds shape current reactions and distance. We also acknowledge the societal pressures that influence relationships, expectations around gender, caregiving, and success, that can quietly strain connection. Together, we rebuild safety, trust, and closeness so that love feels like a steady, healing space again.

Imagine a life where…

You find a path to everything you’ve been wanting.

  • You feel deeply grounded , no longer defined by anxiety, exhaustion, or the constant pull to be everything for everyone.

  • Your relationships feel emotionally safe, where communication flows with honesty and empathy instead of defense or distance.

  • Past wounds no longer dictate your reactions; instead, they become places of wisdom and strength.

  • You honor your body’s cues, finding balance through somatic awareness and nervous-system calm.

  • You trust yourself again, moving through life with clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace you may have thought was out of reach.
