Introduction

I know how isolating it can feel to carry the weight of trauma or the pressure of existential questions. I've worked through, and continue to work on my own. Life often feels full of questions that seem too big to answer: Who am I? What is my purpose? How do I find meaning in all the uncertainty? As an existential therapist, I’m here to explore these questions with you, without judgment, in a space that honors your unique journey. I strive to empower those I work with agency: Combining EMDR’s trauma work with existential exploration. This allows one to not only process their past wounds but also approach their future with a renewed sense of control and possibility. I'm there with you every step of the way, providing humor when appropriate, and offering tangible tools for your tool box.
