Here, you’ll find a safe, affirming space where all parts of you are welcome—culturally sensitive, neurodivergent-affirming, gender-affirming, and identity-affirming. This is a place to explore the deeper layers of who you are, without shame or judgment. We all deserve a space where we can speak our truths and truly be heard.
I specialize in trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, and healing relational wounds—including the mother wound. Your story matters. Healing isn’t just about moving on—it’s about gently understanding how your experiences have shaped you, both mind and body. My goal is to help you feel empowered in your healing journey and to support you in discovering a deeper sense of balance, wholeness, and self-trust.
At Balanced Roots, we take a whole-person approach—honoring the connection between mind, body, and nervous system to create lasting, embodied change. True healing goes beyond symptom management. It invites curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to uncover the root causes of your pain. When you meet your past with kindness instead of fear, you open the door to lasting transformation.
Life gets messy, and healing is rarely linear. But you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll gently untangle your roots, nurture meaningful change, and help you step into your most authentic, unapologetic self.
Rooted in Compassion. Growing Toward Healing.
There’s space here for all parts of you.
Tailored care from a holistic lens, from the comfort of your home.
If you are looking for an approach that will help you heal on a deeper level so that you can create lasting changes in your life, I am here to help. We can work together to help you uncover and dismantle the root causes of your symptoms, bringing new personal growth into your life.

Core Values
Inclusivity
I am committed to creating a space where you feel truly seen, heard, valued, and supported. Inclusivity is at the heart of my practice, and I prioritize culturally competent care—honoring and respecting your race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, spiritual beliefs, and lifestyle choices. Here, you are welcome exactly as you are.
CURIOSITY
Every person’s experience and perspective is unique—and it deserves to be heard. Here, your words, beliefs, and emotions will be met with respect, empathy, and genuine curiosity. This is your space to explore, learn, and heal, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
EMPOWERMENT
I believe in affirming your efforts, strengths, and successes to help you build the confidence and capacity needed for lasting change. Having control over our lives fosters a sense of agency and self-trust. When we feel fully supported in being our authentic selves, our inner strength is restored, allowing us to step into our full power and live with intention.
