Holistic Trauma Therapy: EMDR, Emotionally Focused, IFS, Somatic Healing, Spiritual Growth - Virtual and In-Person in Ohio

A safe, compassionate space to heal trauma, restore balance, and reconnect with your true self.

Welcome

With over 25 years’ experience as a licensed social worker, I provide compassionate, integrative care to help you heal, grow, and to more fully connect to your sense of self and your life’s purpose. As a trauma therapist, my work combines evidence-based therapies with holistic practices, offering a safe space where body, mind, and spirit can come into balance.

I draw from advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Integrative Trauma Therapy, EMDR Therapy, Somatic Approaches, Positive Psychology, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). In addition, my own practices of yoga, Reiki, meditation, and mindfulness keep me grounded, present, and attuned, allowing me to offer clients a calm, compassionate space for healing. Because I’ve experienced their benefits firsthand, I can share these tools in practical, accessible ways that support mind-body-spirit integration and lasting change.

Whether you are navigating trauma, seeking healthier relationships, or longing to feel more aligned with your inner wisdom, I am here to walk beside you. Together, we’ll create a path toward resilience, self-acceptance, and meaningful transformation.

Working with you.

Whether working with you as an individual, a couple, or a family, I strive to provide an atmosphere of safety and trust to enable you to be open and ready to do your best work. I tune into what is most important to you, and I meet you there. I work best with adults who are healing from trauma and attachment injuries, navigating relationship challenges, or seeking greater clarity and purpose in life. My clients are often ready for deeper change and open to an integrative approach that combines science and soul.

Starting something new and doing something different is never easy and likely leaves you with mixed feelings. Helping you feel safe is my most important ongoing goal. We’ll work together to find a pace that safely guides you to your leading edge of growth. 

Though we each are our own unique individual, there are some attachment-related generalities which apply to most of us:

  • We seek connection with others

  • We are saddened by loss and try to avoid it

  • We dislike rejection and try to avoid it

  • We like recognition and attention and crave acceptance

  • We do more to avoid pain than we do to seek pleasure

  • We care about what others think of us (particularly attachment figures)

  • We seek a degree of control over our lives

  • We question if we’re enough, and/or worry we’re too much
