Therapy here isn’t about fixing. It’s about remembering.
Reclaiming what’s always been there—just buried under the noise, the old roles, or the pressure to perform.
Together, we’ll create space for you to move differently—with more softness, clarity, and choice.
This space might be for you if:
- You’re often in your head, but feel disconnected from your body or needs
- You care for others easily, but struggle to do the same for yourself
- You crave closeness, but don’t always feel safe in it
- You’ve outgrown survival mode, but ease still feels unfamiliar
- You’re tired of striving, fixing, or performing—and want to feel like yourself again
Our work blends somatic therapy, EMDR, Polyvagal Theory, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and relational psychotherapy. Together, we gently explore what’s beneath the surface—so you can reconnect with your body, your emotions, and your sense of self.
Maybe you find yourself overthinking, feeling disconnected in relationships, or always holding it all together—even when you're overwhelmed. You might not call it trauma, but something in you knows there's more to it.
Tried therapy before, but still feel like something’s unresolved?

YOUR WHOLENESS IS ALREADY HERE.
Our work isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that had to go quiet to survive.
THE BODY HOLDS THE STORY.
We recognize that healing doesn’t just happen through insight—it happens through the nervous system, the body, and safe connection.
COMPASSION OVER CORRECTION.
