Individual therapy for women navigating major life transitions.
Book Your Free ConsultationOur clinical approach is grounded in authenticity and genuine curiosity — a commitment to understanding each client’s unique experience with openness and without judgment.
We specialize in working with women who are navigating relational upheaval and the complex, often disorienting process of rediscovering who they are. Whether that looks like the end of a relationship, estrangement from family, leaving behind old roles, or simply the quiet realization that the life you've been living doesn't quite fit — this work is for you.
We specialize in the intersection of big T and little t trauma and the varied ways it manifests — in the body, in relationship dynamics, and in the patterns that keep us living smaller than we deserve. We work with clients who are ready to establish healthier boundaries, step out of old patterns, and build relationships and a sense of self that actually belong to them.
Our treatment approach draws on EMDR and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction — evidence-based modalities that engage the body and nervous system as central to the healing process, rather than relying on cognitive insight alone.
Our background spans community mental health settings and direct work with multilingual youth and LGBTQ+ adults. We bring personal depth of understanding to issues of immigration and cross-cultural identity, divorce and co-parenting, single parenthood, child placement, chosen family, and what it takes to rebuild after significant life disruption.
Individualized counseling to untangle old patterns and figure out what might be waiting over the next hill. We meet you where you are.
For what talking alone can't reach. A body-based, research-backed approach for processing and letting go of relational wounds.
Practice practical evidence-based skills for building a more compassionate relationship with yourself you can take with you out of the office.
The human movement of walking naturally serves to support the body in processing difficult material. Lower your cortisol, clear mental fog and enhance creative problem-solving with the rhythmic, bilateral movement of walking.
Expanded states open new perspectives on old patterns and increase brain plasticity for a limited window. Support your ketamine treatments with therapeutic processing for lasting shifts in identity and relational patterns.
Relational change requires each partner to do their own work. Each individual works with their own therapist in separate sessions, and comes together for joint sessions with both therapists present. This model keeps individual growth at the center while supporting the relationship as a whole.

We offer a free 15-minute phone consultation as a first step. This is a chance for us to get to know each other and see if working together feels right for you.

If it feels like a good fit, we can get you scheduled for the intake session to begin this journey together.
