Our life’s journey begins the moment our heart begins to beat. Our path is marked by significant people and experiences impacting our attachment, mindset, and worldview. Some are positive and some are painful, both leaving a lasting impression that reflect in our identity, self-esteem, and sense of purpose. I seek to walk alongside my clients as they find meaning in those relationships and experiences. I am considerate of the story my clients have to tell and offer a compassionate space to meet them where they are, and offer an authentic therapeutic relationship.

While I have a special place in my heart for working with children and helping them navigate life’s challenges through play therapy, I equally enjoy supporting adults on their unique journeys toward healing and growth.
With my background as a teacher and extensive training in play therapy, I create safe and engaging spaces for children to express themselves. For adults, I draw on my EMDR training to support them through the complexities of trauma and life transitions.

I integrate Art Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Brain Synchronization Therapy, Play Therapy, and Somatic-Based practices.
Through creative expression, body awareness, and gentle exploration of the self, I support clients of all ages in processing trauma, building emotional resilience, and reclaiming their sense of agency and wholeness. I believe that healing is rediscovering and reuniting with the parts of ourselves that have been silenced, hurt, or hidden.

Each person’s story is shaped by the people, relationships, and experiences in their life. Have you considered how these influences have shaped who you are—and who you are becoming? Whether you are navigating a life transition, carrying the weight of painful experiences, or struggling in your relationships, you don’t have to walk through it alone. We offer trauma-informed, attachment-oriented, experiential, and evidence-based care to our community. We believe the therapeutic relationship —between therapist and client, is a powerful agent of change. We provide collaboration, authenticity, and whole-person wellness for clients.

Hi! My name is Hannah, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience. My training and clients have taught me one important lesson- we all could use some time for introspection. I am EMDR- and TF-CBT-trained, with extensive experience serving individuals who have experienced trauma and stressors, including incorporating understanding of trauma’s impacts on our bodies and sense of self. I am also passionate about serving individuals who may not need long-term therapy. For some, a few sessions may be the best fit! I love to provide services for youth and families, as well as adults.
