Are you a young adult between the ages of 18-30? Are you struggling with anxiety or feeling disconnected from yourself and others? If you are looking to improve the quality of your relationships in life, let's connect. My focus is helping women who have anxiety from relational trauma (traumatic or stressful experiences that have occurred within the context of your family or romantic relationships) learn healthier coping skills & feel more secure in themselves. I aim to help you find more fulfillment in your relationships and to find a calmer baseline in your mood and responses to stress.

Please read the 'Services' tab on my website for more information on my focus.

**Please note: due to high volume of counseling inquiries, I will only be able to respond to the individuals who indicate they have read through my website information and have identified that their specific counseling needs align with my speciality of relational trauma and anxiety issues. My therapeutic approach is geared towards helping you understand your relationship patterns from a trauma lens and helping you feel more connected and in tune with yourself and others**

I use body-based approaches as well as attachment-based and insight-oriented therapy. I believe that in order to change something (and experience long-lasting change), we have to have a deep understanding of why certain behaviors and emotions are present for us. I work to help my clients feel safe in their bodies before we do trauma work, and we constantly check-in to make sure therapy feels safe and helpful. I like to introduce aspects of somatic work, aka tuning in to what our body is, and has been, trying to tell us. We do this by slowing down and learning to recognize sensations within ourselves. As trauma causes disconnection with ourselves and often in our relationships with others, this approach helps us begin to be more present in our own lives and within our relationships. I am a good fit for young adult women who are interested in using therapy to gain insight into their relationships patterns and issues, and who are looking for a therapy experience that has educational elements to it (i.e. learning about the nervous system) as well as mindfulness and sensation-focused parts. I currently offer therapy to clients who are seeking weekly therapy.
