Though we may not always wish it to be so, we are human before we are anything else.

With over 25 years' experience working with clients across the lifespan and numerous social and cultural backgrounds, I aim to provide a safe space where clients can feel heard, understood, and most importantly, get answers. My focus of treatment is of CPTSD, or complex trauma, which is a condition brought on by chiildhood traumas that were ongoing and of multiple dimensions. With a combination of DBT skills, trauma work and lots of just listening, I can help you to free yourself from trauma-related beliefs and reactions that are holding you back from living a productive and satisfying life.

I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.
