About

Trauma Therapy for High-Functioning Adults Ready for Depth Work

I provide structured, trauma-informed therapy for thoughtful, high-functioning adults and couples who feel stuck despite insight and effort. Many clients appear steady on the outside but feel internally exhausted, disconnected, or caught in patterns they can’t shift alone. My work integrates EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), somatic trauma therapy, and attachment-focused approaches to support meaningful nervous system change, not just short-term coping. I specialize in trauma and complex trauma, anxiety, grief and loss, fertility and perinatal mental health, relationship strain, identity shifts, and burnout. I work best with insight-oriented clients who are ready to move beyond awareness into integration. Sessions are 90 minutes by design, allowing space for deeper processing, regulation, and sustained progress. In addition to weekly therapy, I offer focused therapy intensives for clients seeking meaningful momentum in a shorter period of time. Intensives provide extended, uninterrupted sessions designed for trauma processing and emotional integration when weekly therapy feels slow or insufficient. Therapy here is collaborative, grounded, and structured for lasting change.
