I believe our life experiences shape who we are and determine how we interpret and respond to the world around us. Sometimes, our experiences can leave us feeling isolated, anxious, or unworthy. Life can feel hard and seeking help can feel scary. You are not alone.
Through a psychodynamic lens, incorporating a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach, I join my clients in working through difficult experiences to gain a stronger sense of self and wellness. I specialize in self-esteem/self-worth, anxiety, grief, depression, interpersonal violence, and trauma. I work with kids, teens, young adults, and older adults.
My manner of practice is casual and comfortable, with my main focus being on your feelings of safety and trust in our relationship. I strongly believe that healing begins when we really feel heard and understood and I work to create that type of space for every client.
