I am a feminist and existentialist clinical mental health counselor dedicated to supporting survivors as they navigate the complex effects of trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, anger, and identity concerns. I provide a compassionate and grounded therapeutic environment for women, individuals in the perinatal period, and members of the LGBTQ community
I utilize a range of evidence-based, body-centered interventions, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness practices, and nature-based approaches. My integrative methodology reflects a deep respect for both scientific understanding and spiritual insight.
Central to my philosophy is the belief that clients are the foremost authorities on their own lived experience. My therapeutic stance is collaborative and empowering, emphasizing partnership and authenticity in the healing process. While sessions are full of laughter, tears, and reflection, they are also characterized by warmth and connection.
