Hi, I’m Em. I know firsthand how overwhelming and isolating it can feel to navigate emotional challenges—because I’ve been there myself. Through my own healing journey, I’ve learned that vulnerability is not a weakness, but a strength. I’ve discovered that it’s possible to trust again, to make mistakes without shame, and to continue growing through each experience. What’s mattered most is not perfection, but persistence—the understanding that healing is an ongoing process.
Together, we can create collaborative short and long-term goals that help you grow beyond old patterns that no longer serve you, and into a life shaped by clarity, self-compassion, and meaningful relationships; heal by acknowledging your emotional wounds and nurturing them with compassion, creating space for peace and balance within; and thrive in the wisdom you gain from your journey, transforming adversity into resilience and embracing the fullness of interacting with yourself and the world from an authentic place.

The courage it takes to care for yourself, to question patterns like people-pleasing or self-doubt, is already a powerful first step. You don’t have to keep carrying these burdens alone. With support, you can reconnect with your values, strengthen your boundaries, and create a life that feels more manageable and authentic to who you are. With support, you can create a life that feels more balanced, more genuine—and truly your own.
I approach therapy through a trauma-informed lens, recognizing that many symptoms and behaviors are rooted in past attachment wounds or traumatic experiences. In our early sessions, we'll explore the difference between acute and complex trauma, dive into attachment styles and trauma responses, and begin identifying patterns that may be impacting your well-being. Together, we'll define your goals and create a roadmap for your healing journey.
Virtual and telehealth options available
I'’m here to support and hold space for both of you—helping you uncover the underlying triggers, personal stories, and needs that shape how you relate to one another. With greater insight and empathy, you can begin to rebuild trust, connection, and a stronger sense of partnership.
