Accepting clients impacted by disaster

Introduction

I became a therapist because I’m passionate about helping people understand themselves more deeply and feel more grounded in their relationships and daily lives. I use experiential therapy and EMDR to support meaningful, lasting change by exploring emotions, bodily cues, and the patterns that keep clients feeling stuck. My background includes working with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, and relational stress. My style is warm, collaborative, and focused on creating new experiences in the room that help clients build trust in themselves. Whether you’re overwhelmed, feeling disconnected, or ready to break old cycles, therapy can be a place to slow down, feel supported, and move toward healthier relationships with yourself and others. I’m here to walk alongside you as you take that next step.
