Nice to meet you
I work with individuals healing from trauma, using EMDR to help resolve the roots of distress and support lasting growth. We all carry the capacity to reconnect with ourselves, even after painful or overwhelming experiences. I bring warmth, humor, and honesty to therapy, and while I’ll support you with care, I also offer direct feedback when it matters—gently challenging the patterns that keep you stuck, while always honoring your pace and your process.
