Hey there! I’m so glad you found your way here.

My approach is trauma-informed, body-aware and grounded in respect for your story and identity. I draw from EMDR, IFS, somatic work and nervous system regulation practices. More than anything, I show up as a human who cares deeply about YOU and your healing.

My work centers around supporting individuals and couples navigating trauma, identity, relationships and life transitions. I specialize in creating affirming, inclusive spaces for healing; whether you’re processing a difficult birth, exploring intimacy, navigating complex relationships or reconnecting with your body after trauma.

I bring years of experience as a mom, doula, yoga practitioner and trauma-informed clinician AND I also bring my humanity. I’m here for the deep work and the real talk. For the uncomfortable truths and the belly laughs. My approach is collaborative, compassionate and rooted in curiosity. I believe that healing looks different for everyone; and I’m here to help you find what it looks like for you.

When I’m not in session, you can usually find me chasing sunsets or driving with the windows down and music loud. I love deep conversations, spontaneous laughter and creating spaces where people feel like they truly belong. I’m also a big fan of comfy clothes, curated playlists and finding joy in small things.
