Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and deep respect for your unique story. I work with people across all stages of life who are navigating the effects of trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, or feeling disconnected from themselves. My goal is to help you rebuild safety, rediscover connection, and move toward a more grounded, authentic sense of self. Alongside traditional therapy, I also offer Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy, which can provide a meaningful, body-centered way to explore healing and self-awareness.
