It is my belief that the foundation of successful therapy lies in the relationship we build together. Healing happens in the context of trust, safety, and connection, and my priority is to create a space where you feel truly seen, understood, and supported. Therapy is not just about addressing symptoms—it’s about deepening your understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the world around you so that you can break free from patterns that have kept you stuck and move toward a more fulfilling life. I began my career in 2013 working for the Air Force Special Operations Command, in support of Active-Duty Veterans and families.
I have experience working in a range of settings including Residential, PHP/IOP and out patient clinics and I enjoy connecting with diverse backgrounds. I am certified in multiple evidence-based models including prolonged exposure and cognitive processing therapy for trauma treatment. i'm trained in ERP for OCD treatment and I am a board approved supervisor.
I also work with clients struggling with other anxieties, grief and loss, depression, fertility challenges, parenting stress and complex family relationships. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to begin or simply have questions, I invite you to reach out for a consultation.
