What we can work on together.

Trauma & attachment

Many of the people I work with have spent years managing the effects of trauma and early attachment wounds without quite knowing that’s what they’re doing. Our earliest relationships — the ones that taught us whether we were safe, loved, and worthy — shape everything that follows. When those foundations were uncertain or painful, the effects travel with us: into how we see ourselves, how we connect with others, and how regulated or unsteady we feel inside.

Trauma and attachment wounds can show up in many forms — as PTSD, anxiety, or depression that won’t lift. As grief or loss that feels impossible to move through. As dissociation, a sense of not quite being present in your own life, or a persistent feeling of disconnection from yourself and others. For many people, especially women in midlife, neurodivergence is also part of this picture — often unrecognized for years, and deeply intertwined with how trauma has been carried.

These are not signs of weakness. They are often the nervous system’s way of adapting to experiences that once felt unsafe or overwhelming. Together, we explore these patterns gently — creating the conditions for something to soften, for what has been fragmented to begin to integrate.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS invites us to understand ourselves as made up of many different parts — the part that is hard on you, the part that shuts down, the part that has always felt too much or not enough. Many of these parts are younger than we realize: inner children carrying old pain from specific moments in our development, still doing their best to protect us in ways that once made sense. Rather than trying to eliminate or override these parts, IFS helps us develop a compassionate relationship with them. As these parts feel more seen and understood, they begin to soften — and real integration becomes possible.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an evidence-based approach that helps the brain and nervous system process and integrate memories that remain stuck — often experiences that continue to feel present even when they are long past. EMDR can be a powerful complement to talk therapy, working at a level that words alone don’t always reach.

Sensorimotor Psychotherapy

Trauma lives in the body as much as in the mind. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy brings awareness to physical sensations, movements, and impulses as a way of accessing and integrating experiences that may be difficult to reach through words or memory alone — supporting the body in completing what was once left unfinished.

Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy & KAP

Psychedelic experiences can open profound windows — to buried memories, to parts of ourselves we’ve lost contact with, to a felt sense of connection and wholeness. But the opening is only the beginning. Integration is where the real work happens: making meaning of what emerged, weaving new insights into daily life, and allowing the experience to support lasting change.

I offer preparation and integration support for individuals exploring Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, including Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). I hold certifications through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute and the MAPS MDMA-Assisted Therapy Certificate Program.
