Treating Individual Adults, Children, Adolescents and Couples with safety and warmth.


Good therapy strikes a balance between compassion and challenge.
As a trauma specialist, I work with adults, teens, couples and families.
Trauma can stem from a single overwhelming event—such as an assault, accident, or sudden loss—
OR from ongoing early experiences like childhood neglect, abuse, or repeated relationship wounds.
All can deeply affect your sense of safety, trust, and self-worth.
We simultaneously work with current issues AND the "old programing", that seems to repeat over and over.
Welcome!
Many of my clients dont classify themselves as "traumatized," but notice negative patterns in
relationships and work environments. Other clients are very aware of a trauma history.
Healing is possible in a space that feels safe, respectful, with a comfortable pace..
I am fully trained in EMDR, a well-established trauma treatment that helps the brain
process painful memories so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity.
I also bring 15 years of experience in psychodynamic therapy, helping clients
understand how past experiences shape present patterns, relationships, and self-worth.
As a Licensed Art Therapist, I offer creative approaches when words are difficult or
when deeper expression is needed.
My work is warm, steady, and collaborative.
..I talk too!
We begin by building safety and stability, then gently move toward healing in a way that feels manageable and empowering.
You do not have to navigate this alone. I welcome you to reach out for a consultation to
see if working together feels like the right next step.
