In a world that profits off of our disconnection, from ourselves, from each other, and from the land, it is a radical act to slow down and pay attention to yourself in a deeper way. No matter what you are experiencing - depression, anxiety, relationship stress, or fear and uncertainty about the state of the world - slowing down and noticing what you are experiencing with compassion and curiosity is the first step toward any healing process. My job in therapy is to support you in learning how to be present with the thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations that might feel too intense or scary to be with alone.
I work primarily with students and young professionals who are navigating life transitions, relationship stress, pressures of school and work, and the challenges of living in the world as it is today. I integrate relational psychotherapy with mindfulness and somatic therapy. I also integrate trauma-informed, attachment, and anti-oppressive theory in my work.
Healing means having choices. When we’re able to notice our thoughts, beliefs, and automatic patterns with conscious awareness, we can make new choices. My role as your therapist is to support you in that process of slowing down and noticing what’s there with curiosity. If you'd like to learn more about how I work, schedule a call today or visit my website.

Many of my clients have experienced relational and childhood trauma. Through our work together, clients leave therapy feeling better able to acknowledge their emotions with compassion, listen to the signals in their body, make choices that align with their authentic needs and desires, experience genuine connection in their relationships, and feel more present and fulfilled in their daily life.

I hold anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and liberatory values in my practice. My hope is to help you experience as much safety, joy, empowerment, and connection in your life as possible, while acknowledging the real impacts of the violent systems we're living within. I honor the lived experiences of all clients, including experiences related to race, gender identity, sexuality, ability, and more.
