Whether your trauma was a single overwhelming event or something that unfolded endlessly over time, the impact it leaves can be deep and lasting.

You might feel stuck in survival mode, disconnected from yourself or others, or weighed down by anxiety, fear, or emotional numbness.

At the root of my work with clients, I offer a trauma-informed, curious, compassionate space to process what’s happened and begin to move toward healing at a pace that feels safe for you.

Much of my work centers around complex trauma: the kind that comes from repeated or long-term experiences that were confusing, painful, or minimized by others. These traumas often stem from relationships and environments that shaped your sense of self and safety in the world.

This may include:

• Childhood emotional neglect or abuse

• Betrayal by caregivers, partners, or trusted communities

• Religious or spiritual trauma

• Growing up in high-demand, rigid, or controlling environments

• Sexual trauma, especially when minimized or invalidated

• Ongoing experiences of systemic oppression

• Gaslighting or chronic invalidation of your emotions

• Being “parentified” or made responsible for adult needs as a child

• Patterns of abandonment, rejection, or conditional love

I have a particular interest in working with religious and spiritual trauma (read more below if this resonates with you), and I understand how deeply these experiences can shape your identity, relationships, and inner world. Too often, I’ve seen this form of trauma overlooked or misunderstood in therapy spaces—which is exactly why I’m committed to offering informed, compassionate support. If you've been made to feel unworthy, broken, or afraid simply for being yourself, this work can help you begin to reclaim your voice, your worth, and your wholeness.

Supporting those recovering from high-control religions, purity culture, spiritual abuse, or conditional belonging rooted in faith communities. Whether you're questioning long-held beliefs or healing from environments where conformity was expected over authenticity, therapy can be a space to untangle the fear, shame, and confusion these experiences leave behind. I also hold space for those impacted by systemic oppression including racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism, medical trauma, and the ways these forces shape how you see yourself and move through the world.

Gracefully navigating breakups, childbirth & postpartum, post-graduation shifts, significant losses, early-to-mid career changes and any other life transition you may be experiencing with intention and care

If you grew up feeling like your emotional needs weren’t seen, respected, or understood, you’re not alone. Many adults carry the invisible wounds of being raised by caregivers who were emotionally unavailable, uninformed or immature. Parents who may have been unpredictable, self-focused, reactive, or unable to meet you with empathy and emotional presence. These dynamics can leave lasting patterns of self-doubt, guilt, people-pleasing, or a sense that your feelings are “too much.”

This work involves untangling those early messages, learning to set boundaries without shame, and gently reconnecting with your own inner emotional world. It can be both deeply healing and liberating to begin recognizing the patterns that were never yours to carry and to begin relating to yourself and others with greater clarity, self-trust, and peace.

The phrase “emotionally immature parents” comes from the work of clinical psychologist and author Lindsay C. Gibson, whose book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents has helped many people find language for experiences that once felt confusing or invisible.

I support individuals exploring who they are beyond the roles, rules, or expectations they were handed. This may include navigating questions around sexuality, gender identity or expression, neurodivergence, spirituality, belief systems, cultural identity, or how you choose to show up in the world. Whether you’re just beginning to question long-held values or deep in the process of redefining what feels true for you, therapy can be a place to sort through the noise and reconnect with your most authentic self.

If you're someone who holds space for others - whether as a therapist, educator, parent, healthcare provider, activist, or caregiver - you may be used to showing up with strength and steadiness, even when you're running on empty. I support helpers in tending to their own emotional needs, processing compassion fatigue or vicarious trauma, and reconnecting with their own humanity. This work can offer a space to exhale, reflect, and reclaim your inner resources without guilt.

Healing from sexual trauma is not about rushing to “move on”, it’s about gently rebuilding safety, trust, and a sense of connection with yourself. Whether the experience was recent or long ago, happened one time or felt like it would never end, acknowledged or minimized by others, therapy can be a place where your story is held with care and without judgment. I offer trauma-informed support for survivors navigating the complex layers of impact, including body disconnection, shame, self-blame, intimacy challenges, or grief over what was taken. You deserve to feel safe in your own body and empowered in your healing process, and we’ll move at a pace that honors your voice and needs every step of the way.

Whether you’ve recently been diagnosed or have long sensed that your brain just works differently, I offer a supportive space to better understand and work with your neurodivergence. For many, especially those diagnosed later in life, ADHD, Autism and other forms of neurodivergence have gone unrecognized or been masked by people-pleasing, burnout, or internalized shame. Together, we can explore how these differences have shaped your experiences, challenge outdated narratives about productivity and worth, and develop strategies that actually align with how you function best. This work is about self-compassion, sustainable change, and embracing who you are, not who the world told you to be.

Managing the pressures of college, graduate school, or high-demand work environments can leave you feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or like you're never doing enough. I help individuals navigate burnout, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and identity shifts that often come with these seasons, all while learning how to stay grounded and connected to yourself along the way.
