Specialties
Where we go deepest
Each specialty below is a door into work I have spent years refining. If you do not see yourself exactly, reach out — most people arrive with a few of these overlapping at once.
EMDR
A structured, body-aware way to loosen memories that still feel present tense.
Read moreAnxiety
For the mind that rehearses every outcome and still cannot rest at the end of it.
Read moreTrauma
Paced, consent-led work for what happened — and for the ways you learned to survive it.
Read moreOCD
Untangling and deconstructing the intrusive thoughts from the rituals and anxiety spirals.
Read moreWomen's Issues
Identity, perfectionism, matrescence and the quiet cost of holding everything together.
Read moreDepression
For the heaviness that dulls joy, drains energy, and makes ordinary days feel uphill.
Read morePerfectionism
When high standards stop motivating you and start policing every mistake.
Read moreBurnout
The exhaustion that comes from caring deeply in a system that never lets you refill.
Read moreRelationship Issues
Untangling old patterns so closeness feels safer and conflict becomes repair.

When change — wanted or unwanted — unmoors the story you had about your life.

Often together
Concerns that rarely travel alone
Many people do not fit neatly into one category. These are the concerns that often show up alongside the specialties above.
How I work
A person-centered, trauma-informed approach
My approach integrates CBT, EMDR and attachment-focused exploration. Christian counseling is available for those who want faith woven into the work, and clients of all backgrounds — including secular — are warmly welcome.
Ideal clients
- Individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD or grief
- Women working through perfectionism, burnout, identity and life transitions
- Men seeking a thoughtful, non-judgmental space to process hard things
- LGBTQ+ clients looking for an affirming, identity-informed therapist
- Anyone seeking Christian counseling or a secular, evidence-based approach

Not sure where you fit?
That is completely normal. Most people do not arrive with a diagnosis; they arrive with a feeling that something has to give.
