Anxiety and stress can leave us feeling shattered, disconnected, and out of touch with our authentic selves. The constant overwhelm, isolation from misunderstood friends, and struggle to establish and uphold boundaries can be exhausting. It's possible you can't even recall a time when you didn't feel this way. But here's what's clear: you're craving relief. You're eager to cultivate fulfilling relationships free from the grip of the past. You're determined to regain confidence in asserting your needs. Above all, you're ready to rekindle self-love and embrace the future with renewed hope.

Clients choose me because I deeply understand their experiences. My approach goes beyond mere conversation; it involves Somatic Experiencing; a body based treatment to working with trauma that helps your nervous system heal & rediscover the experience of joy. I provide gentle guidance at your pace, ensuring your comfort and readiness every step of the way.

As a seasoned relationship & anxiety therapist, registered yoga teacher, & somatic healing specialist, I am here to support you in this process. You no longer have to navigate your struggles alone. Take the first step towards your healing journey by scheduling a 15-minute call with me today. I look forward to connecting with you & hearing your story.
