In sessions, you can expect me to be relationally responsive to you and your interests, needs, strengths, and goals for growth through trauma-informed approaches. The therapeutic environment is ours to co-create; you are the expert of you and I feel honored to be invited to come alongside individuals as they bravely step into healing and greater wellness.
I am a former educator with a M.E.d, and I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, individuals navigating chronic illness, caregivers of youth with chronic illness, the LGBTQ+ community, and women of all ages navigating grief. I approach therapy through a trauma-informed lens and with the client as the driver of change.
I believe heavily in holding room for the “both/and” of life. My approaches within sessions will reflect that. As humans, we are beautifully complex. When you walk into a session, you may be feeling joy, fear, anger, and grief all at the same time. It’s all welcome. I am committed to honoring all of who you are and all that you bring with you into the room.

I am a trauma-informed, person-centered therapist who is relationally responsive to the individual in front of me and their current needs and treatment goals. I most heavily align with a psychodynamic approach to therapy and often integrate attachment theory, IFS, and neuroscience psychology.
