Biography
I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with their most authentic selves, particularly through the integration of transformative experiences. I understand that the real work often begins after the experience itself, as we learn to bring insights into everyday life. I’ve spent the majority of my clinical work in the past 15 years supporting Veterans who experienced combat, sexual trauma, or interpersonal violence. I opened my private practice in 2021 to expand services to other adults navigating difficult life circumstances (e.g. trauma, grief, major life changes) and to those who want to go deep into guided self-exploration to uncover and reshape their subconscious programming.
My approach combines evidence-based therapies, including somatic therapy, EMDR, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and Internal Family Systems work. My orientation is that trauma is not just what happens to us, but how we store it in our bodies. I draw from Eastern contemplative practices and Western neuroscience, with a dose of groundedness, Southern hospitality, and good old-fashioned goofiness.
