Do you keep getting hurt in relationships? Keep repeating the same patterns that leave you anxious & depressed? You feel alone, numb, or spiral into intense overwhelming feelings out of nowhere. Early relationships are your blueprint for adult intimate relationships. They shape your perceptions & beliefs, often subconsciously. If you grew up with family conflict, abandonment, abuse, or trauma, adult relationships can be hard. You're tired of feeling stuck in the same painful patterns. You know something needs to change, you just aren't sure what, or how. You're ready to stop feeling broken & start navigating relationships with ease.
Clients come to me looking for someone who gets complex trauma and family dysfunction on a deeper level, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe & validated. In sessions we’ll explore how trauma impacts you now, making connections between past & present to create lasting changes. We'll move at your pace, examining the past but not reliving it.
My practice is small, highly specialized, and fully online so I can devote my full attention to each of my clients. It's time to stop wondering what's wrong with you and start building a life you love. You're not broken, you're injured. And your injuries can heal with the right therapy. Send me a message to book your free consultation online to get started.

Your formative relationships literally shaped your brain. But your past doesn't have to dictate your future. I use a psychobiological and psychodynamic approach to heal the wounds of relational trauma. Together we'll pinpoint attachment traumas, address defensive adaptations, and break cycles of re-enactment so you can build the safe, trusting connections with yourself and others that you crave.
