If you're carrying the weight of trauma, parenting stress, identity struggles, or emotional overwhelm, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I’m a trauma-informed social worker who believes healing happens in safe and trusting relationships. My role is to walk alongside you with care, curiosity, and skill as you move toward feeling more connected to yourself and others. My approach blends evidence-based modalities including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), ACT, and attachment and relational therapies. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy, so I tailor our work together to your unique goals.
With over eight years of clinical experience in community mental health settings and private practice, I have experience working with individuals, families, and parents navigating life's complexities. Whether you're ready to dive deep or just begin, we’ll create a space where every part of you is welcome, including the tender parts you've kept tucked away.
I bring a commitment to anti-oppressive practice and the belief that healing must honor your full context - your relationships, your history, and your identity. You deserve thoughtful, responsive care that values your voice and helps you make meaningful change at your own pace. If this sounds like the kind of support you're looking for, please reach out.
