Hi there, I'm Tessa!

Do you often feel stressed, overwhelmed, or unable to find a sense of balance in your life? I provide a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space where you can explore life challenges with curiosity and compassion. Together, we will build on your strengths, foster self-understanding, and support your journey toward greater emotional well-being.

My focus

Are you experiencing life challenges that make it difficult to feel present and engaged in your daily life? At times, overwhelming emotions, self-doubt, or unhelpful patterns can interfere with our ability to function effectively and accomplish our goals. Together we will explore the patterns that no longer serve you and cultivate self-compassion.

My approach

My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, combining practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help navigate thoughts, emotions, and behaviors more effectively, while incorporating Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and somatic therapy strategies that honor the mind-body connection.
