Loss changes us; healing helps us rebuild
I am a therapist specializing in trauma, grief and loss, with additional training in EMDR therapy. My work focuses on helping clients integrate painful experiences, build emotional resilience, and develop a deeper understanding of how trauma and loss have shaped, not controlled, one's life. I use EMDR therapy as an evidence-based approach to support the processing of traumatic memories and promote nervous system regulation and healing.
I view therapy as a partnership and work alongside clients to strengthen insight, coping skills, and a sense of stability and meaning. My goal is to support clients in moving through hardship while reconnecting with purpose, resilience, and the possibility of a more fulfilling life.
