I strive to serve the community around me and advocate for those who are in need. I focus on psychotherapeutic models to aid individuals in understanding the role their brain plays in treatment. Educating individuals about brain structure, function, development, and explaining how neurobiology can be applied to individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, and other disorders. Interpersonal neurobiology of human development aids us to understand that structure & function of the mind & brain are shaped by our experiences especially involving emotional relationships.

I believe most problems we experience are caused by a combination of two factors; carrying around too much from the past, and not taking good care of ourselves. The symptoms of Depression, Anxiety, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Substance Abuse can all manifest from not cleaning up the past and from practicing poor self care in in the present. Using a variety of approaches including, Psychotherapy, Hypnosis, EMDR, and Process Work, we will together to shift this balance. As people get better at nurturing themselves and begin to let go of the weight of the past, they feel better.

I believe therapy works best when it feels human, so I aim to bring authenticity, warmth, and a bit of personality into the room to help create a comfortable space for vulnerability and growth. I work with children, teens, and young adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief and loss, academic and career stress, body image concerns, LGBTQIA+ experiences, and sleep challenges.
My approach is integrative, often working through a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) lens with clients of all ages, and using Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) with younger clients. For sleep difficulties, I am trained in CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I).

As an adult, you are beginning to realize that your childhood wasn’t “just normal”. You got away from total chaos in your family. Or maybe you left the church/religion. Or you have been rejected by past community for your sexual or gender identity. You thought you could move on but you can’t. This experience has left you totally destabilized.
