What I treat

The areas I work in most, each with its own page.

How it works

The approach itself, and the practical side of getting started.

What is complex trauma?

PTSD usually traces back to a specific event. Complex PTSD tends to come from prolonged or repeated exposure, often starting early in life, and it doesn't always look like flashbacks. More often it looks like a harsh inner critic, trouble trusting people, and a shaky sense of who you are underneath it all.

My approach

My approach is rooted in traditional talk therapy: a strong clinical relationship, paired with specific tools and modalities where they're useful. The goal isn't just managing symptoms; it's helping you meet yourself with less shame and more steadiness, so the rest of your life has more room to move.

Modalities I draw on

I bring these in when they're useful for what you're working through, not as a fixed protocol every client goes through. Psychodynamic work and Internal Family Systems shape most of how I think; the rest show up where they help.
