Let's Connect (530) 240-7453
I provide competent, compassionate mental health care with a flare of comic relief. I approach the psychological work from a non-dualistic lens. I believe each of us have inherent wisdom and that we all need support and reminders to more readily access our internal and external resources. I look forward to walking side by side you on your journey of growth, reflection and healing. I'm skilled at providing in-depth mental health assessments/diagnostics to support client's in better understanding their challenges and I provide congruent coping strategies/treatment.
I specialize in utilizing a trauma informed approach with those recovering from acute and chronic trauma, addiction/alcoholism, and attachment issues. I am a trans-affirming therapist working with individuals and families.
I hope to have the opportunity to honor your pain or struggles as well as celebrate your innate beauty and wisdom.

I often utilize multiple modalities throughout care. I consider each client's unique social, cultural, and mental health context when choosing the appropriate modalities and theoretical approaches. I have found utilizing Brainspotting with IFS (Internal Family systems) and narrative therapy to be a powerful blend for doing deep healing around root issues.
