When Therapy Hasn’t Gone Deep Enough

Real help for complex, treatment-resistant, and long-term struggles.

Some people don’t fit neatly into diagnostic boxes.
Others fit so deeply into them that real support feels impossible to find.


You may have carried anxiety, panic, trauma, or depression for years.
You’ve worked hard. You’ve tried. You’ve shown up for therapy. 

Maybe it helped—but it didn't reach the core.


My work is built for that depth.
I specialize in helping people who’ve been labeled “treatment-resistant,” “too complex,” or simply “hard to help.”


Whether you or a loved one are struggling with OCD, panic disorder, agoraphobia, episodes of psychosis, or a number of other deeply challenging mental health struggles—

we trace the roots of what’s happening, calm the nervous system, integrate the mind, and recover the spark of aliveness that’s been buried beneath survival.


Together, we will chart a course from fragmentation to aliveness—and we will walk it one session at a time. 

If you're ready for the next step,

What This Work Addresses

Whether you or a loved one are navigating any of the following, this work can help:


  • OCD, panic disorder, or agoraphobia
  • Treatment-resistant anxiety or depression
  • Complex trauma and CPTSD
  • Bipolar disorder with its manic or hypomanic episodes
  • Psychosis and the blur between what's real / what isn't
  • Exhaustion after years of therapy with little change
  • “High-functioning” pain — holding it together but feeling disconnected inside
     

You don’t need to fit every box.
You just need to be ready for something more grounded, honest, and effective.

My Approach

This work honors both the slow and the sudden.
Some sessions will feel like relief; others will feel like excavation.
What matters most is that we keep building clarity, strength, and capacity — one layer at a time.


My approach integrates:

  • EMDR to reprocess the roots of trauma and panic
  • Somatic awareness to reconnect body and mind
  • Depth counseling to uncover meaning, values, and direction
  • CBT + practical structure to rebuild stability, clarity, and daily rhythm
     

We work slowly enough to reach what’s true — and steadily enough to make real progress.
The goal isn’t perfection. It’s wholeness, energy, and a life that feels like it’s yours again.

For Parents, Partners, and Caregivers

Supporting someone in deep pain can take everything out of you.
It’s easy to feel helpless — trying to do the right thing while holding your own fear, guilt, or exhaustion.


I offer counseling and consultation for caregivers navigating complex mental health challenges.
You’ll learn to support wisely, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and steady yourself in the process.


Because helping someone heal doesn’t have to mean losing yourself in their suffering.

Let's start the process together
