Therapy for adults shaped by trauma or chronic stress

​Support for emotional regulation, relational healing, and rebuilding a sense of self.

​If you grew up having to stay alert, adapt quickly, or manage your emotions alone, those patterns can follow you into adulthood—showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship struggles, or feeling disconnected from yourself.

​

My work focuses on helping adults rebuild capacities that were interrupted early in life. Therapy moves at a pace that prioritizes safety and nervous system regulation, with attention to both emotional experience and relationship patterns.
