The Struggle

As an EMDR-certified therapist with over 20 years of experience, I specialize in helping women and teens navigate the complexities of relational stress and burnout. Together, we move beyond "talk therapy" to address the deeper patterns holding you back, ensuring you don't have to walk this path alone.

Contact me today to learn more and book a session.
A consultation is a short meeting to determine fit for you. It's informal & a chance to get to know each other. If you invest the time in meeting with me, I am confident that therapy can make a difference in your life. The consultation is not a therapy session. The therapeutic work starts in the first full session after the consult.
