A serene space 
for unfolding

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that supports the healing of distressing experiences by engaging the brain’s natural capacity to process and integrate. Through the use of bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or sounds), EMDR helps reduce the emotional charge of unresolved memories and supports the nervous system in finding more ease and coherence. In my practice, EMDR serves as a primary framework because it allows us to go beyond talking about what’s happened—it supports the mind and body in processing what’s been held beneath the surface. This approach can be especially helpful for addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, and patterns of self-doubt shaped by earlier experiences—creating space for greater emotional clarity, steadiness, and connection with your authentic self. Whether we’re working with specific memories, long-held patterns, or a general sense of unease, EMDR offers a gentle, yet deeply transformative way of supporting change—at your own pace, and with care.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a gentle, compassionate approach that invites us to get to know the different parts of ourselves—those inner voices, feelings, or patterns that often show up in response to life’s challenges. You might notice parts that strive, parts that protect, parts that feel overwhelmed or uncertain. IFS helps us bring these parts into awareness with curiosity, care, and respect. Rather than trying to push anything away, we create space for these parts to be seen, heard, and understood—often revealing the deeper needs or emotions they’ve been carrying. As this inner landscape becomes more known and tended to, we begin to feel more grounded, whole, and connected to what IFS calls the Self—the calm, steady center within each of us that holds wisdom, clarity, and compassion. While EMDR is the primary framework in my work, I often fold in IFS as a way to support emotional integration, soften internal conflict, and help you feel more at ease within.

Gestalt therapy invites us into present-moment awareness—into noticing what’s happening internally, relationally, and somatically as it unfolds. It helps us explore how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us by bringing attention to what’s happening right here and now. In my practice, I draw from Gestalt principles to support embodied awareness, emotional clarity, and deeper insight. We may notice how certain emotions show up in the body, explore unfinished feelings through dialogue, or become curious about subtle patterns that arise in the therapy space. This approach creates opportunities to reconnect with parts of yourself that may have felt distant, silenced, or stuck—allowing something new to emerge from a place of mindful contact and curiosity. ​ Gestalt offers a flexible, experiential way to deepen the work, especially when combined with EMDR, somatic awareness, and IFS. It helps make space for what’s true in the moment, honoring your unique inner rhythm and experience.

Somatic therapy honors the body as an essential part of healing—recognizing that our experiences, especially those related to stress or trauma, are often held not just in the mind, but also in the nervous system and body. In my practice, I weave in body-based awareness to support emotional regulation, grounding, and a deeper sense of safety within. This might look like slowing down to notice sensations, connecting with breath, or exploring how emotions show up physically in the moment. These small shifts can help bring insight, ease, and greater coherence to your internal experience. By including the body in our work together, we create space for what words alone might not fully express—inviting a more integrated connection to yourself, your boundaries, and your emotional landscape.

Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) brings together insights from neuroscience, psychology, and relational wisdom to understand how our minds and nervous systems are shaped by experience—especially within relationships. At its heart, IPNB recognizes that healing happens through integration: the linking of different parts of ourselves into a more connected whole. ​In my practice, IPNB informs how I understand the interplay between brain, body, and relationships. It helps guide a compassionate approach that supports emotional regulation, flexibility, and resilience—while honoring your unique nervous system and life history. ​This perspective also reminds us that change is not only possible, but deeply relational. Through a safe, attuned therapeutic relationship, we can begin to rewire patterns shaped by past experiences and foster a greater sense of coherence, balance, and connection—both internally and with others.

Our earliest relationships shape how we relate—to others, to the world, and to ourselves. Attachment-based therapy offers a warm and compassionate space to explore these early patterns and how they may still be influencing your present experience. In my practice, I approach this exploration collaboratively, inviting curiosity around the ways you’ve learned to connect, protect, or distance over time. Together, we’ll tend to relational wounds that may have left imprints of mistrust, disconnection, or fear, while also strengthening your capacity to feel safe, supported, and connected in the here and now. Through an attuned therapeutic relationship, we create space for new relational experiences to emerge—experiences rooted in trust, empathy, and emotional presence. This process can support a deeper sense of ease, authenticity, and connection in how you relate both to yourself and others.
