With extensive experience in supporting individuals who have survived sexual trauma, a compassionate and collaborative approach is utilized, firmly grounded in trauma-informed care. Healing thrives in a space where clients feel safe, respected, and empowered to guide their own journey.

Support is offered to teens (17+) and adults facing a variety of challenges, such as anxiety, shame, relationship issues, and struggles with trust or self-worth. Recognizing the complex ways trauma affects both mind and body, therapy is personalized to meet each individual’s unique needs, pace, and goals. Additionally, Brainspotting is integrated into the practice to enhance therapeutic outcomes.

Throughout the therapeutic process, a strong emphasis is placed on consent, choice, and emotional safety. A nurturing environment is created to ensure you can explore your experiences free from judgment while developing valuable skills in grounding, resilience, and self-compassion. The goal of healing is not to “fix” the past, but to help you feel whole, empowered, and connected to your life today.
