OCD + Anxiety Support

Wow, did you know it can take up to 12 years to receive a proper OCD diagnosis even if you have been in therapy all that time? Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a crippling experience, and requires proper treatment in order to actually start feeling better. No, you are not crazy I promise. But having constant obsessive thoughts, intrusive images, and the constant “what ifs” can feel really scare and exhausting, especially for sensitive, intuitive women who feel everything deeply. OCD can make you doubt yourself, replay scenarios endlessly, and make you feel trapped in your own mind. I utilize an evidence based treatment called Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to break the OCD cycle, expose yourself to scenarios to teach yourself that 99.999% the scary thing won’t happen, and if it did you would be able to cope way better than you thought. I work with different subtypes of OCD that include but are not limited to Pure OCD (just obsessions and thoughts), Checking OCD (constant safety checking), Suicidal OCD, Harm OCD, Relationship OCD, and contamination OCD.

PMDD Support

If your menstrual cycle brings intense emotional ups and downs, irritability, anxiety, or intrusive thoughts that feel overwhelming, you’re not alone and there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. I understand how isolating, confusing, exhausting, and overwhelming the luteal phase can feel—and how deeply PMDD can affect your mood, identity, relationships, and self-trust. I provide a gentle, non-pathologizing space to explore your lived experience of PMDD, helping you make sense of cyclical emotional shifts while building tools for nervous system regulation, self-compassion, and emotional resilience. PMDD is not only a personal struggle, but as a systemic one—where women’s pain is often dismissed, minimized, or misunderstood. Healing happens through being deeply seen, supported, and understood, and through finding your voice — both in session, to express what has gone unspoken, and outside of therapy, to clearly name your needs and set boundaries that honor your wellbeing. I help you not only track your cycle, but understand unlock the power that is hidden in each phase, and build strategies to navigate the month with more ease, self-compassion, and confidence.

Co-Dependency (People Pleasing) Support

If you are constantly putting other people’s needs above your own, are terrified of disappointing other’s, or struggle to set boundaries, you might be navigating codependency. This can feel confusing, lonely, and draining—especially for highly sensitive, empathetic folks. Maybe you grew up being rewarded for always being the “good girl” even though you started to resent it when you got older. Maybe you chronically self-abandon because the second you have needs, you notice people are upset with you. This may have worked at one point in your life, but my guess is that if you are reading this right now, it’s no longer working and your inner self is screaming for you. I help you understand these patterns, learn that boundaries are loving, reclaim your sense of self and authenticity, and nurture yourself while still being compassionate toward others, so relationships feel balanced, fulfilling, and authentic. I really want my clients to walk away from therapy together with the deep belief that you are your number one priority and “you need you.”

Trauma Support

Past hurts, relational wounds, or life-shaking experiences can linger long after the events themselves. Trauma shows up as heightened anxiety, overthinking, or difficulty trusting yourself and others. Together, we create a safe space to process what’s happened, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your inner strength so you can feel steady, grounded, and more at home in your body and life. When we experience trauma we walk away from the experience (almost always) with a negative belief about ourselves or the world. Also, our brains don’t properly store memories when we experience trauma, and we live our day to day lives as if the traumatic event was still happening. I utilize EMDR to help reproprocess the trauma so it becomes stored properly in your brain, and to de-sensitive the impact it has on your life today. We work from a here-and-now approach, meaning I don’t go digging up the past just to churn things up, but we see what is currently effecting your life and work backwards from their. We move at the rate of safety, so that you build confidence over time, and feel comfortable along the way. I want to not that: You don’t have to remember things from your past to receive healing now. It’s ok if things feel foggy, and often times they may.

Grief Support

Losing someone you love can turn your world upside down, and grief often shows up in ways no one expects—intense sadness, guilt, anger, or feeling “stuck.” I know this personally: three years ago, I unexpectedly lost my brother, and I understand how raw, gut-wrenching, life-shattering, confusing and disorienting grief can feel. I provide a safe, compassionate space to process loss, honor your feelings, and find ways to carry your loved one while learning to live with a broken heart. I work with folks who have experienced or are currently navigating a life-altering loss. My approach is rooted in the belief that there is no right way to grieve or no timeline for when you should “move on.” Grief is not something to “fix” or “get rid of,” but rather something to be honored and processed. It is a reflection of the deep love we’ve shared, and I guide clients in recognizing that this love and connection can endure beyond physical form. I support my clients in creating meaningful rituals to honor their loved ones, offer creative outlets to help release stuck emotions, and use somatic techniques to help regulate the nervous system. Together, we explore how to find meaning in what can feel like a meaningless reality. I also recognize that grief can show up throughout your life in many forms and not just in the loss of a loved one: it can be fertility challenges, divorce, a life transition, a loss of identity, a life you always longed for but never had, a childhood you wish was different, an emotionally unavailable parent or partner, and so much more. I’m here to welcome all of it.

Couples Support ~

Relationships are among our greatest teachers, and often the places where our deepest wounds are revealed. Our partners have the unique ability to reflect back to us both our pain and our potential for healing. In the sacred space of a relationship, we are invited to confront and heal our wounds, and also to experience the profound growth and transformation that comes through connection. I often work with couples who desire to communicate more authentically and deeply, helping them move beyond surface-level exchanges to create a space where true understanding and empathy can flourish. My work also supports couples in reducing conflict, releasing feelings of resentment, and fostering greater intimacy—both emotional and spiritual. Together, we explore how to nurture a connection that is rooted in love, mutual respect, and shared growth, allowing both partners to feel seen, heard, and deeply connected on a soul level.
