As a therapist, I have a deeply held belief in the power of listening and acceptance. It can be scary to trust in yourself, especially when you are suffering. Therapy with me is a space to let go and be yourself: no masks, no judgment, just curiosity, acceptance, and compassion. I provide this space for clients of all backgrounds. My clients would describe me as calm, warm, and adaptable.
I am passionate about supporting clients healing from trauma, dealing with ADHD, and dealing with anxiety. I use ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help you unhook from difficult, tangled thoughts and feelings and to live according to your values. I also use EMDR to support clients healing from trauma. Together, we will collaborate to figure out what has you feeling stuck and what actions you can take to move toward a full, meaningful life.

With more than twenty years of experience in human services, I've had the honor of supporting people from all walks of life as they navigate the challenges of relationships—both with others and within themselves. My approach focuses on creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to explore what's weighing on you. Together, we can work on understanding patterns, reconnecting with your strengths, and identifying the steps toward meaningful change, no matter where you are in life. Whether you're dealing with stress, seeking greater self-awareness, or striving for deeper connections, I am here to help. If you're ready to begin this journey or simply curious about what might be possible, I welcome you to reach out and take the first step.
Feeling safe with others is probably the most critical aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives." - Bessel Van Der Kolk.
I believe that we all deserve relationships that we feel emotionally safety within. Relationships where we can get in touch with our emotions and feel truly felt by another person. I believe in the power of sharing our stories and being seen and "feeling with" another human being can be an incredibly healing experience. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Master's in Social Work(SWC).
As a therapist, I strive to provide others with outside insight, helpful information, and empathy to help you normalize your struggles. I bring good listening skills, and a little gentle humor to each session. My practice is rooted in attachment theory and pulls on IFS and Narrative work. I am happy to work with clients who have a variety of challenges including- relationships, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and LGBTQ support!
"Recovery can only take place within the context of relationships; it cannot occur within isolation." -Judith Herman
