The Work

What I work with.

Seven areas of focus, shaped to the person in front of me. Relief matters, and it’s often where we start. The work also goes underneath, to the patterns that keep showing up.

Trauma +
EMDR-informed therapy

Childhood, complex, attachment, relational, and medical trauma, and more.

Trauma isn’t only the big events. It’s whatever your nervous system had to organize itself around: a childhood that asked too much of you, a relationship that rewrote how safe closeness feels, a medical experience that was more frightening than anyone acknowledged. Sometimes it shows up right away, and sometimes it lingers quietly for years, in your body, your relationships, and your sense of self.

We work with what’s underneath: the protective patterns, the early templates, what the body still remembers. I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and integrate it into the work where it fits, with full certification in progress.

Chronic illness + medical mental health

The mental and emotional toll of chronic illness: the part your doctors don’t treat.

Endometriosis, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, and more. The diagnosis is one thing. The grief, the identity shift, and the exhaustion of having to advocate for yourself over and over, that’s the part nobody treats.

This is specialty work for me, shaped by clinical training and personal experience. Sessions hold both the medical reality and the emotional weight of it, including the version of your life you had to grieve.

Women’s reproductive health

The experiences that deserve more support than they usually get.

I work across the full span of reproductive life: pregnancy and postpartum, perinatal anxiety, fertility treatment, miscarriage and loss, endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), and perimenopause. These are medical events and emotional ones at the same time, and most care only treats the first half.

Therapy makes room for the second half: grief and relief in the same breath, and an experience everyone around you expected to be simple.

Anxiety, depression + life transitions

Anxiety, depression, and the transitions that change how you see yourself.

The anxiety that lives in your nervous system. The depression that comes from carrying too much for too long. The transitions you didn’t plan for, and the ones you did that still changed you.

Symptom relief is part of the work, and so is looking at what’s driving symptoms: what they’re protecting, and what they’re trying to tell you.

05

Self-esteem + identity

For when the inner critic is louder than your own voice.

The harsh self-talk, the perfectionism, the patterns you built to survive that aren’t serving you anymore.

This is identity work: attachment patterns, the stories running in the background, and the relationship you have with yourself.

06

Kids + teens

What they’re holding that adults don’t always see.

Anxiety, school stress, family transitions, friendship dynamics, identity. Kids and teens carry more than they can usually say out loud.

My background includes a New York University degree in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Studies, child life work with pediatric oncology patients, and school-based social work. Younger clients work alongside parent consultation, and the consult is where we figure out together whether telehealth is the right fit for your child.

Parental support

Sometimes the most effective way to help a kid is to support the parent.

For parents working through how to show up for a child who’s struggling, their own parenting history, or the family dynamics playing out at home.

This isn’t parenting-tips coaching. It’s depth work on the patterns you brought into parenting, so they stop running the show.
