A Different Approach For Those Who Want More From Therapy

Many of my clients begin working with me after many years in therapy and with a ton of insight about themselves and their histories in tow.

They know why they feel the way they do but don’t yet feel different on the inside. If this sounds like you, you’re not alone — and you’re not doing therapy “wrong.”

My work is designed for people who are ready to move beyond insight alone and into deeper, nervous-system-level healing. Together, we focus on the parts of you that learned to survive early on — patterns rooted in childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and long-standing attachment wounds that don’t respond to talk therapy alone.

This approach helps you move past your thoughts and connect with your body, emotions, and internal parts of self to help you experience change in real time, not just come up with a tool or strategy to implement later.

If you’ve done “all the right things” in therapy and still feel stuck, disconnected, or caught in the same cycles, I’d love to connect to see if the space we cocreate together is the missing piece.

AEDP

I like to say that AEDP — Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy — is my therapeutic home. It’s woven into each and every moment I share with my clients, shaping how I listen, how I respond, and how we move through your experiences together.

At the heart of AEDP is the relationship itself — where healing happens in connection and undoing aloneness is priority number one. This is in response to our biological wiring, where safe, predictable connection is a pre-requisite to healing. AEDP combines the power of the relationship with an evidence backed, neuroscientific approach to promote trauma healing at the brain-body level.

EMDR

EMDR helps your nervous system process experiences that are still living in the present, even though they happened in the past. Rather than retelling your story over and over, we work in a way that allows your brain and body to do what they were unable to do at the time—fully digest and resolve what happened.

During EMDR processing, we target specific memories, beliefs, or emotional responses that keep showing up in your life. As processing unfolds, distress softens, emotional charge decreases, and your nervous system comes back to baseline. Learn more about EMDR here.

IFS/Parts Work

Internal Family Systems (or Parts Work) therapy recognizes that we all have different inner parts — protective parts that learned to keep us safe, and younger parts that still carry unmet needs from early relationships. For many people with childhood trauma or emotional neglect, these younger parts are the ones holding fear, shame, or a deep longing for connection, and they can quietly take over in moments when you feel reactive, stuck, or disconnected from yourself.

In our work together, we approach these parts with curiosity and compassion. Rather than trying to change or get rid of them, we slow down and listen, creating space for them to feel seen and supported, often for the first time. As this happens, protective patterns like self-criticism or people-pleasing begin to soften, and clients often find a growing sense of authenticity, calm, and self-trust.

It’s so important to me to show up with vulnerability and authenticity with my clients.
