Nice to meet you

Do you often question your feelings, wonder if you’re "too sensitive," or feel unseen in your relationships? Maybe you’re stuck in self-doubt, walking on eggshells, or feeling like you’ve lost yourself. If this resonates, you’re not alone. I help women navigate difficult relationships—deciding to stay or leave or rediscovering themselves after emotional exhaustion. Using a trauma-informed approach, Brainspotting, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I help you process pain, rebuild confidence, and find clarity. I also support women with perinatal mental health struggles.
