I take an integrative, attachment- and trauma-informed approach to therapy. I believe our bodies tell a story about our experiences in the world, and that learning to listen to that story can offer both insight and a path toward healing and more empowered living.

I’m interested in understanding the ways we’ve learned to cope, adapt, and protect ourselves. Therapy can be a space to become curious about these patterns, develop a deeper understanding of yourself, and create more choice in how you move through the world.

My approach is grounded in the belief that safety, choice, agency, and transparency are essential to meaningful therapeutic work. I also understand how deeply our early relationships with caregivers can shape the ways we come to understand ourselves, others, and our place in the world. Through the ways we are seen, responded to, and reflected back to, we begin to develop a sense of who we are and what we can expect from relationships.

I believe it is possible to heal early attachment wounds and trauma through compassionate connection- with ourselves, with others, and with the parts of us that have carried loneliness, shame, fear, and pain. This work isn't usually quick, but it can be deep. Over time, it can change not only how you understand your experiences, but how you live in and relate to the world.

My work is grounded in attachment theory and trauma-informed care and informed by the neurobiology of trauma and stress, polyvagal theory, dissociation and structural dissociation, and parts-based approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS). I also draw from somatic approaches and an understanding of how our experiences are held and expressed through the body.

I incorporate elements of CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, RO-DBT, parts-based and somatic interventions, and EMDR tailoring our work to you rather than following one particular formula.
