I specialize in working with adults who have been impacted by traumatic and/or distressing life experiences. Whether one-time or ongoing, these experiences can result in a profound rupture and a resulting sense of disconnection from ourselves, others, and the world we live in. I use evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches to assist clients in overcoming unhelpful and self-defeating patterns that may be negatively impacting relationships and leading to areas of unmanageability in their lives. I strive to assist people in achieving sustainable and positive change that will reverberate through their lives, leading to growth, greater connection with self and others, and increased resilience when encountering life’s inevitable challenges. 

I pay particular attention to the important connection between mind and body, and incorporate EMDR and somatic therapies into our work together. Many people struggle to feel ‘at home’ in their body. By gently developing greater awareness of and self-compassion toward your body and its sensations, you can begin to view your body as a resource - one that you can use to stay grounded during turbulent times and aligned with your healthiest and most functional self. 

Areas of focus: Complex trauma, PTSD, LGBTQ+ issues, sex & intimacy, mind-body integration.
