I specialize in providing psychotherapy to children aged 0-12. Childhood is an extraordinary time of growth and change, and often it can be hard to know when extra support may be needed. Many times, the first step is in supporting parents in understanding the current challenge. I strive to witness each child uniquely while building a safe therapeutic relationship. My approach to therapy is warm, creative, and playful. I view caregivers as an important part of the treatment process and carve out space to meet with them routinely.

I believe in creating a strong relationship between the client and myself. Regardless of treatment approach, research shows that this relationship is the most important factor for successful therapy. As part of creating this relationship I take a non-pathologizing approach that helps individuals understand why they are the way they are and do the things they do. I pull from multiple therapeutic approaches such as parts work (internal family systems), somatic experiencing, and mindfulness. I use a humanistic and psychodynamic lens that has been heavily influenced by systems theory and attachment theory.

Welcome! Our work together will be dynamic, reflective, and creative, with dashes of humor, invitations to try new things, and together finding concrete ways to help you feel better. My main approaches to working with others are through a feminist, non-directive lens; one in which I follow the lead of the client, listen, ask questions, make observations, and also speak of the Narrative you frame your life in. As a writer and one who utilizes Narrative and Poetic therapy, language and the frames we characterize ourselves in are true for us.

As a social worker, my primary framework locates a client within their own context: a person-in-environment approach. In working with me, we will explore the many layers of context you inhabit, including primary relationships, community networks, and larger systems that shape your experience. Therapy with me will involve collaboration, connection, and trust as we work together to meet your needs and goals. Particular areas of interest to me are issues pertaining to families of elementary age children, grief and loss, life transitions, and the perinatal period for birthing people. I also can help to explore impacts of climate grief.

Many of the struggles people carry did not begin with them. Anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, identity concerns, and the effects of trauma are often rooted in experiences and patterns shaped long before a person had language for them.

I bring particular depth to those navigating cultural identity, intergenerational expectations, or the feeling of living between worlds. Together, we make sense of what you've been carrying & move forward with greater clarity, connection, & choice.

Reconnect with who you are beneath who you've had to be. What once helped you get through may now feel exhausting, lonely, or limiting. Over time, this can lead to feeling unsure of what you want or need, or stuck in patterns and relationships that no longer fit.
