I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and trauma-informed therapist who supports adults navigating emotional wounds, identity shifts, abandonment, rejection, parent wounds, chronic illness/pain, and life experiences that have shaped how they relate to themselves and others. I approach therapy with presence, curiosity, and respect, creating a space where deeper healing can unfold at a pace that feels intentional and supportive.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session is a collaborative, grounding conversation focused on understanding what brings you to therapy and what you’re hoping to change. We’ll explore your current challenges, relevant history, and what has or hasn’t been helpful in the past. I’ll also share how my trauma-informed approach works so we can determine together if we’re a good fit. This session sets the foundation for focused, intentional healing.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength is creating a grounded, safe space where clients feel seen, respected, and supported in exploring the deeper roots of their emotional patterns. I bring a thoughtful, trauma-informed approach that blends clarity with compassion, helping clients move beyond coping toward meaningful, lasting change. I work best with clients who are ready to engage intentionally in the healing process.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is reflective, motivated, and ready to explore the deeper roots of their emotional patterns. They may appear capable and high-functioning on the outside while feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck internally. They value a thoughtful, personalized approach to therapy and are open to engaging in meaningful, lasting change rather than quick fixes.
EMDR
I use EMDR to help clients process experiences that remain stored in the nervous system and continue to shape emotional responses, beliefs, and patterns. This approach supports focused, efficient healing at the root—often allowing clients to experience meaningful relief and clarity beyond traditional talk therapy.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
I use an Internal Family Systems–informed approach that helps clients understand and care for the different parts of themselves shaped by life experiences. Rather than pathologizing, this work builds self-compassion, clarity, and inner safety, allowing healing to happen at the root and supporting lasting emotional change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I incorporate mindfulness to help clients build awareness of their inner experience, regulate the nervous system, and develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves. This practice supports presence, emotional clarity, and deeper healing by allowing clients to respond thoughtfully rather than remain stuck in reactive patterns.

My initial session was successful, and I establish a rapport with Dr. Nabors. I genuinely believe that higher powers guided me to her. I am confident that she will assist me in achieving my objectives.
