Welcome! I provide specialized therapy for adults experiencing complex trauma, dissociation, PTSD, DID, OSDD, and related concerns. Whether you feel overwhelmed by intense emotions, disconnected from yourself, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, therapy offers a compassionate space to build understanding, safety, and lasting change.
Services Overview

It can also provide a clear clinical summary to support treatment planning, referrals, disability documentation, or coordination of care. Whether you are seeking answers or greater direction for next steps, this process is designed to support insight and care.
ProfessionalConsultation
Thank you for being here and for all you do! I provide consultation to mental health professionals and attorneys seeking a deeper understanding of trauma, dissociation, assessment findings, and case conceptualization. Consultation may support clinical decision-making, case review, diagnostic clarification, and understanding the impact of trauma-related symptoms.
