Welcome to Sage Therapy and Wellness!
As a holistic therapist, I believe that true healing involves caring for the whole self: mind, body, and spirit. My approach blends a person-centered philosophy with trauma informed care, focusing on creating a safe and collaborative space where you can explore your challenges and rediscover your inner wisdom. With over ten years of experience, I help adults heal from depression, anxiety and relational and attachment trauma so they can feel safe in themselves and in relationships.
In our work together, I’ll honor your story while helping you build tools for resilience, self-awareness, and growth. I see therapy as a partnership, one where curiosity, compassion, and practical strategies come together to support meaningful change. My goal is not just to help you cope, but to help you thrive, aligned with your values and your vision for life.
Outside of therapy, I’m passionate about live music, standup comedy, hiking, and spending as much time as I can at the beach. I also enjoy reading, strength training and playing video games to the worst of my ability.
My Approach
Relational Therapy
Relational therapy focuses on the healing power of relationships, including the one we build in therapy. By exploring patterns of connection, communication, and trust, we can better understand how past experiences shape present relationships and work toward creating healthier, more fulfilling connections.
EMDR
EMDR is an evidence-based approach for processing and healing from trauma. By using bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess painful memories in a safe and contained way, reducing their intensity and allowing you to move forward with greater calm, clarity, and confidence.
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Each person comes with their own story, needs, and goals, which is why I draw from a variety of approaches to create a personalized path for healing and growth. Together, we’ll explore what resonates most for you and adapt along the way, so your therapy feels supportive, effective, and uniquely yours.
Attachment Based Therapy
Attachment-based therapy helps you understand how early relationships impact your sense of safety, trust, and closeness with others today. Together, we’ll identify patterns, heal attachment wounds, and foster a stronger sense of security in yourself and in your relationships.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a compassionate, evidence-based approach that helps you understand and heal the different “parts” of yourself. In this work, we explore protective patterns and past wounds with curiosity rather than judgment, strengthening your connection to the core Self that holds clarity, calm, and wisdom. IFS supports deep healing by softening old patterns and creating new ways of relating to yourself and others. It is especially helpful for trauma, attachment wounds, and inner conflict, offering a path toward greater balance, self-understanding, and wholeness.
Mindful Self-Compassion
Mindful self-compassion combines mindfulness with the practice of treating yourself with the same kindness you offer others. This approach helps you quiet self-criticism, respond to challenges with gentleness, and cultivate resilience by learning to be a supportive ally to yourself.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Informed Therapy
DBT-informed therapy combines acceptance and change, teaching skills to manage emotions, cope with stress, and improve relationships. This approach is especially helpful if you feel emotions intensely or struggle with patterns of self-criticism, conflict, or overwhelm.
