I currently work with adults utilizing a person-centered approach, incorporating attachment-based & trauma focused interventions tailored to each individual's needs.
Do you struggle with anxiety & depression? Do you feel stuck in old patterns? Are you curious about therapy, looking for support or needing help? Taking the first step to start therapy can be intimidating & finding the right fit in therapy can be difficult. My emphasis is on creating a safe, compassionate, & non- judgmental environment to facilitate your internal healing & personal growth.

My mission is to walk alongside individuals and families as they strive toward connection. I believe that connection comes from finding hope, from authentic communication, and from learning to trust one's self. Humans are wired for connection. Connection leads to lower anxiety and depression, higher trust and empathy, and consequently, higher intimacy. Lack of connection is the source of pain that can cause addiction, infidelity, depression, anxiety, and a host of mental disorders. Connection has even been proven to improve physical symptoms. I can't wait to explore with you and to see what connection can do for your life!

I've discovered that seeking therapy is a brave shift towards healing and self-awareness. No one is immune to the trials and tribulations of life. You have the power within you for change and growth...trust yourself. It's important to build trust and rapport between client (you) and therapist (me). I would like to know why and/or how you've come to therapy and what your expectations are (after all, this is your time, at your expense). I'm interested in your life story. I've found honesty and vulnerability lay the foundation to building a new freedom.

From a child, I have always been interested in people's stories. Where they came from, who they were connected to, and what happened to them, which led me to the work of mental health. Within my clinical practice, I feel I am a holder of stories. Through listening and offering compassion while people tell their stories, I try to help them find hope and healing within the retelling. I feel comfortable working with a diverse clientele. Telehealth has afforded me the ability to see individuals from across both Nevada and California. I enjoy working with adults through telehealth and children in person.

Attachment-based Therapists

Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?

Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.

What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?

Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.

How long does attachment-based therapy last?

Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.

Does attachment-based therapy work?

Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
