Private Counseling
reconnect with yourself
Working Together
Every body has a story. Fear, stress, and trauma don't just live in our heads. That's why, when times are challenging, we may feel tired, or sore, or tense. Uncomfortable emotions often manifest physically throughout our bodies and can become trapped for long after you've talked about them. Healing isn't always complete after a conversation. Sometimes, we need to quite literally let go of what it is we're holding onto.
​
At Rooted Works, I take a grounded, holistic approach to healing that honors both mind and body. My style is intuitive and collaborative. I'm not here to tell you what to do or what to feel. That is forcing change, which rarely solves anything. Instead, I listen, and together we'll move at a pace that feels safe and steady for you. There is no technique you need to follow or daily practice to remember. You simply show up as yourself, wherever you are.
I'm here to help you create a space for the change you've been looking for.

Support for Teens & Families
It can be overwhelming to be a teenager. We've all been there. I offer a steady, supportive space where teens can learn to understand their emotions, build healthy habits, and feel more confident.
​
Patience and safety are my top priorities. I help teens comfortably open up, explore what they feel inside, and learn practical tools for healthy coping. Often, this work involves helping parents more clearly understand the needs of their teen.
​
If your teen is struggling or simply needs a space to talk, I'm here to support both of you.
