Life can be challenging, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to support you—whether you’re a parent seeking help for your child or an adult looking for guidance. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, autism, ADHD, and the everyday challenges that come with being human. I offer a compassionate space where you can feel seen, supported, and empowered to heal and grow. As an LGBTQIA+ and neurodiversity-affirming therapist, I honor every identity and neurotype, and I tailor treatment to meet your unique needs.I’m
My practice is trauma-informed, emphasizing the deep and often intertwined connection between the mind and body. I am trained in Brainspotting, a powerful modality that helps access and process emotional patterns stored in the brain and body. This approach promotes healing, guiding you through what feels stuck and strengthening emotional resilience.
When working with children, I incorporate play therapy techniques. Play is a child’s natural language, helping them communicate feelings, process experiences, and build self-esteem in a way that feels both safe and empowering. If you’re ready to begin your healing journey - or to support your child in theirs - I’m here to help you every step of the way.
