(she/her)
Hi! My name is Zoe. I specialize in virtual therapy for teens and women navigating the lasting impact of complex PTSD, borderline personality disorder (BPD), eating disorders, anxiety, and depression. My work is rooted in the belief that healing begins with understanding—not just of symptoms, but of the emotional patterns, past experiences, and survival strategies that shaped them. I'm certified in DBT and trained in EMDR, integrating evidence-based approaches with a warm, direct style that helps clients build deeper insight, emotional regulation, and lasting change. Are you a teen or adult woman juggling the stress of work, school, or relationships while feeling stuck in a cycle of overthinking and self-doubt? Maybe past experiences still weigh on you, keeping you up at night, or you feel pressure to have it all together when, deep down, you’re struggling. You might be coping by being hard on yourself, over-controlling food or exercise, or repeating relationship patterns that don’t feel healthy. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I get how overwhelming it can be, and I’m here to help. If you’re exhausted from holding it all in, stuck in cycles of anxiety, depression, toxic relationships, or self-doubt… I see you. If food, perfectionism, or emotional shutdown became your survival tools, you're not broken—you adapted. If you’ve been told you’re “too emotional” or “too sensitive,” but deep down you just feel too alone, this space is for you.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first session, we’ll take the time to explore your history, current challenges, and goals for therapy in a way that feels safe and supportive. I’ll ask about your experiences with anxiety, trauma, relationships, mood, and any patterns you’ve noticed in your emotions or behaviors. This is a collaborative process—I’ll never push you to discuss anything before you’re ready. Based on our discussion, I’ll provide personalized treatment recommendations, which may include weekly or twice-weekly sessions depending on your needs and symptom severity. We’ll also discuss the therapy approaches that will best support your healing, such as EMDR, DBT, RO-DBT, or CBT, and start setting a foundation for meaningful progress. My goal is to ensure you feel comfortable, validated, and confident that therapy is the right step for you.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my ability to understand, on a deep psychological level, the internal thought processes that develop in response to trauma. I'm attuned to how experiences like emotional neglect, abuse, or relational instability can shape core beliefs, identity, attachment patterns, and coping strategies. This allows me to go beyond surface-level symptoms and really see the protective function behind behaviors—like perfectionism, emotional numbing, self-blame, or hypervigilance—so clients feel deeply understood, not pathologized.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Individual DBT skills training is a collaborative process where you and I work together to explore and practice specific DBT skills that are most relevant to your life. Whether you’re struggling with regulating your emotions, communicating effectively in relationships, or coping with distressing situations, I will provide guidance and support as you develop and integrate these skills into your daily life.
EMDR
EMDR therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy that helps individuals process and heal from distressing or traumatic experiences. Developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR utilizes bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, hand tapping, or auditory tones, to facilitate the brain’s natural healing process and alleviate emotional distress.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a structured, goal-oriented therapy that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It operates on the principle that our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors, and by changing our thought patterns, we can change how we feel and act.
Humanistic
Humanistic therapy emphasizes individual potential, personal growth, and self-awareness. It encourages clients to explore their feelings and experiences in a non-judgmental, empathetic environment, helping them achieve self-acceptance and fulfillment. This approach, often associated with Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, believes that people are inherently good and capable of making positive choices. The therapist acts as a guide, fostering a supportive relationship where clients can discover their true selves, gain insight into their emotions, and realize their full potential for personal growth and self-actualization.
