Introduction

You may feel constantly on edge, emotionally shut down, or overwhelmed by reactions that seem to come out of nowhere. Maybe past experiences still show up in your body, your relationships, or your sense of safety, even though you’ve tried to move on. You might struggle with trust, guilt, shame, or a feeling that something is “wrong” with you. Often, these patterns trace back to earlier experiences that taught you to stay alert, quiet, or strong for too long. Therapy can help you understand these responses, reconnect with yourself, and build a life that feels steadier, more present, and more your own. I specialize in trauma, PTSD, and complex trauma, helping adults understand how past experiences still affect their emotions, relationships, and sense of safety. My work focuses on calming the nervous system, strengthening coping skills, and reducing symptoms so you can feel more grounded, confident, and in control of your life. Healing from trauma takes courage, and it’s okay to move at your own pace. I offer a respectful, compassionate space where your experiences are taken seriously and your boundaries are honored. If you’re ready to begin working through what’s been holding you back, I invite you to reach out and take the next step.
