Therapy with me is rooted in the belief that meaningful change happens when we feel seen, understood, and connected — not only to others, but to our truest selves.
I work integratively, drawing from several evidence-based and depth-oriented approaches that support clients in understanding how their past has shaped their present, accessing their internal resources, and moving toward lasting emotional change. Whether you’re working through longstanding patterns or a recent life disruption, I aim to offer a space that is warm, collaborative, and attuned to both your story and your nervous system.
Below are some of the core therapeutic frameworks I use in our work together:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach that helps the brain and body reprocess distressing memories, often at the root of anxiety, self-doubt, and trauma-related symptoms. Using bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), EMDR helps reduce emotional reactivity and install more adaptive beliefs — allowing you to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm.
This method can be particularly helpful if you’ve experienced recent trauma, are stuck in cycles of reactivity, or feel like you “know better” but still feel hijacked by old wounds.

Relational Psychodynamic Therapy
At the heart of much emotional pain is disconnection — from others, and often from ourselves. Relational psychodynamic therapy looks at how early relationships shaped your sense of self and your ways of relating now. Together, we explore unconscious patterns, inner conflicts, and the protective strategies you've developed over time.
Because therapy is a relationship itself, much of the healing happens through our connection. This approach allows us to gently untangle stuck patterns, build insight, and restore your capacity for deep, authentic connection.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Attachment theory helps us understand how early experiences with caregivers shaped our expectations for love, safety, and closeness. If you find yourself anxiously preoccupied in relationships, fearful of rejection, or unsure how to trust, this lens can offer clarity and relief.
We work to build internal security, expand your capacity to feel connected without losing yourself, and explore how your early bonds may still echo in your present-day relationships.
Somatic and Body-Based Therapy
Our bodies hold stories — often before our minds can make sense of them. Somatic therapy integrates awareness of your nervous system, physical sensations, and body-held memories into the healing process.
Sessions may include grounding exercises, breathwork, or tracking your body's subtle cues to help regulate your nervous system and build internal safety. This approach is especially helpful for anxiety, trauma, and emotional overwhelm — and can open the door to a deeper sense of self-trust and resilience.
An Integrative Process
No two clients are the same, and no single approach is one-size-fits-all. Most of my clients benefit from a thoughtful blend of these modalities — a process that is attuned, personalized, and grounded in both science and relational presence.
Sessions are personalized and practical, integrating evidence-based techniques alongside deeper insight-oriented work. At times, we may draw on tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support emotional regulation, build coping skills, and gently reframe unhelpful thought patterns — always tailored to what resonates with you.
Whether you're navigating longstanding patterns or a recent disruption, our work is designed to support your growth and empower you with both insight and actionable tools for change.
