A softer place to begin
Perhaps you are carrying old wounds, feeling disconnected from yourself or your partner, or working hard just to stay steady. Therapy can offer a compassionate space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and build new ways of relating.

Somatic therapy for women
You are capable, creative, and deeply committed to the life you are building—but beneath the surface, you may be carrying more than others realize.
You may be ready to understand the protective patterns beneath anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, procrastination, and emotional overwhelm—and move forward with greater confidence, choice, and self-trust.

Learning to Let Your Armor Down
My approach
I help clients make sense of protective patterns without shame. Together, we work at a pace that supports safety and capacity—bringing insight, emotion, the body, and relationships into the healing process.
My work draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, CBT, DBT, expressive arts, and other evidence-informed approaches.
