Introduction

This world is unpredictable, and your body knows it. On a cellular level, our bodies are responding, resonating, and reflecting the information around us. At times, there can be dissonance—a sharp discomfort or a deep disconnection from safe and stable states. How do we bring our bodies back into harmony? How do we listen to the signals? I offer evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, ACT, CFT, and ERP, coupled with somatic tools to gently guide you toward peace and ease. With a Master’s degree from Boston University and a decade of professional figure skating experience, I bring a mind-body approach to therapy that supports emotional regulation and nervous system soothing. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I earned a master’s degree in literature, which supports my integration of narrative and embodied practices to help you explore new perspectives and deepen your healing. Let’s compassionately explore all of your story’s elements together. You deserve to feel centered and at peace. We can partner in helping you get there.
