Introduction

Welcome. You don’t have to carry it all alone. I’m a trauma-informed therapist specializing in the unique pressures faced by first responders, healthcare professionals, and individuals in high-stress, high-responsibility roles. Whether you're navigating burnout, identity shifts, relationship ruptures, or the weight of systemic trauma, this is a space built for your restoration—not just your resilience. I offer neuroaffirming, LGBTQI-affirming care grounded in deep respect for your lived experience. With a background that includes correctional systems, legal advocacy, and integrative wellness, I understand the complexity of holding it together while everything inside is unraveling. My approach is holistic and integrative—drawing from a wide array of modalities to tailor a path that fits you. Together, we’ll decide what works best for your healing journey, whether that includes somatic tools, narrative processing, parts work, or practical strategies for daily life. Here, we work collaboratively to untangle the patterns that no longer serve you—whether rooted in sexual addiction, life transitions, gendered expectations, or relational pain. Together, we’ll build practical tools, emotional clarity, and a renewed sense of agency. This is not just therapy. It’s a reclamation of your story, your strength, and your next chapter.
