I specialize in working with complex trauma for folks exposed to chronic or repeated stressful experiences throughout their life ranging from emotional harm, abandonment, struggling parent child relationship, and intimate partner(s) issues. I have a wide range of both western and eastern methodology, knowledge, and experience working from different therapy approaches that are uniquely tailored to each client. As a multidisciplinary integrative practitioner, focusing on the mind and body connection, my hope is to collaboratively support you in accessing your agency in order to maintain the relationships you want in your life.
I utilize a systemic trauma-informed lens while incorporating experiential, internal family systems (IFS), and somatic interventions. With mental health education, sensory-somatic practices, and integration, I work with clients in understanding and building insight around their personal experiences in order to access their sense of choice and freedom.
I center the therapist-client relationship and check in for feedback to ensure you are getting what you want out of our time together. I aim for my clients to feel seen, heard, emotionally attuned and empowered. I am passionate about the work I do and supporting others in re-discovering their own relational sense of Self that is embodied and liberated.

I often use a trauma-informed approach in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and collaborate on the most appropriate ways to support you in making progress. With somatic and experiential models like Internal Family Systems (IFS), we'll look at how your experiences have shaped you in order to continue growing and re-gaining agency back into your life.
