My sessions integrate multiple evidence informed and experiential approaches that support emotional awareness, regulation, and repair. Rather than using one method in isolation, I tailor each session to what is happening in your body, your thoughts, and your relational patterns in real time.

Somatic Therapy
You learn how emotions live in the body and how unresolved stress shows up as tension, shutdown, or reactivity. Somatic work helps build nervous system awareness and release patterns that keep you stuck in survival responses.

CBT Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT helps identify unhelpful thought patterns that reinforce emotional distress and relational conflict. We explore how beliefs, interpretations, and assumptions shape reactions, and practice more supportive ways of thinking that align with your values and lived experience.

IFS Parts Work
IFS Parts Work supports understanding the different parts of you that show up in relationships such as protective parts, reactive parts, and vulnerable parts. Rather than trying to silence or override these parts, we work to understand their roles and build internal cooperation and self leadership.

Therapy with Art
Creative expression offers another language when words feel limited. Through color, image, and art based reflection, you gain insight into emotional patterns, attachment responses, and internal experiences that may be difficult to verbalize.

Rooted Function Theory™
Rooted Function Theory™ ties these approaches together by helping you understand how emotional responses form across the body, thoughts, and relational history. This framework focuses on function rather than pathology so you can respond with intention rather than repetition.

• Identify emotional trigger patterns across thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
• Understand your Root to Response loops so cycles stop repeating
• Practice real repair strategies that move you from conflict to collaboration
• Build emotional intimacy, set healthy expectations, and create sustainable relationship patterns

This is not surface level work. It is practical, reflective, and grounded in lived experience.

Rather than focusing only on communication techniques or symptom management, my approach looks at how emotional patterns form and repeat in the body, the mind, and relationships.

I work through a framework I developed called Rooted Function Theory™, which helps you understand not just what you feel, but why certain responses show up automatically in moments of stress, conflict, or closeness.

This work is practical, grounded, and compassionate. It is about awareness, regulation, and real repair.
