Clinical Approach

Integrating Evidence-Based & Holistic Practice

My work integrates trauma-focused clinical hypnosis, EMDR therapy, parts therapy, and somatic practices, focusing on subconscious processing, nervous system regulation, and trauma recovery. Together, we explore the patterns underneath your symptoms, building practices that support lasting integration and identity development. Our work together is designed to be short-term, experiential, and transformative.
