Our Work Together
Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes or surface solutions. It’s about understanding the experiences and beliefs that shape you and moving toward a more meaningful, connected way of living.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
.01
For Adults Seeking Clarity & Meaning
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, individual therapy offers a space to explore, understand, and grow. We'll work together to
Understand the patterns that shape your daily life
Heal trauma and old wounds using approaches like EMDR that honor both mind and body
Understand and regulate emotional and nervous system changes related to hormonal shifts, including perimenopause and PMDD
Create healthy boundaries that protect your well-being while maintaining meaningful relationships
Make decisions that reflect your needs, values, and long-term well-being
Embrace your imperfections while building a life that feels authentic
.02
For Young Adults Finding Their Way
This stage of life often feels like everyone else has it figured out except you. Together, we'll explore the territory of becoming—who you are beneath others' expectations, how to navigate relationships authentically, and what it means to write your own story. We will discover:
Finding your people and building a sense of belonging
Navigating romantic relationships and friendships
Discovering who you are outside of what others expect
Developing self-worth that goes beyond achievements and comparisons
Gently challenging the belief that you’re behind and begin to trust in the timing of your life
.03
COUPLES THERAPY
Rebuilding Connection and Understanding
When couples come to me, they often feel disconnected, distant, and caught in the same arguments over and over. Drawing from evidence-based couples therapy approaches, we'll look at what's really happening beneath your conflicts and help you reconnect with what brought you together. We'll work on:
Understanding each other's attachment needs and fears
Learning to communicate about emotions, not just problems
Healing the hurts that create distance between you
Rebuilding trust and emotional intimacy
Creating new patterns that work for both of you
SPECIALIZED AREAS
Trauma Healing with EMDR
Trauma doesn't just live in our memories—it lives in our nervous systems, our relationships, and the way we move through the world. Using EMDR and other body-aware approaches, we'll help your system process difficult experiences so you can live more freely in the present.
Adult Family Relationships
Family relationships don't get easier just because everyone's grown up. They can sometimes get more complicated. Old patterns, unmet expectations, and years of accumulated hurt can leave families feeling stuck or disconnected. I work with adult children and their parents to untangle what's not working, heal generational wounds, and create healthier ways of relating that honor everyone's growth and autonomy.
Religious Trauma & Spiritual Reconstruction
Questioning beliefs you were raised with or healing from harmful religious experiences requires tremendous courage. I offer a space free from judgment where you can explore what feels true for you now, untangle from purity culture, and discover your own authentic spiritual path.
Working with Athletes
The mental landscape of athletes is complex—performance pressure, identity questions, and the challenge of being a whole person beyond your sport. I understand these unique territories and can walk with you through performance anxiety, silencing that relentless inner critic, and the deeper question of who you are when you're not competing.
