Therapy can be a space for healing, empowerment, and growth, but starting that process can be difficult and takes a lot of courage. As a therapist, I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is a key component to creating a safe, accepting environment from which you can heal and grow. I work together with my clients to relieve the pain that has brought them to this moment, while also helping promote true healing through deeper reflection of their life experiences while incorporating history, culture, and identity.
My areas of specialized training include relationships, identity development, emerging adulthood, parenting, mindfulness and trauma with a sub-specialty in childhood emotional, physical, and sexual abuse and neglect. I have researched and published many articles on childhood trauma and its impact on the psychobiology, identity, and relationships.
Therapy can be a uniquely beautiful and life-changing process, but finding the right therapist can be overwhelming, which is why I offer a free consultation session where you can decide if my experience and style as therapist will be a good fit for you.

When working with adults who have experienced childhood trauma, I first focus on establishing a sense of safety and stability in your life, giving you skills to manage overwhelming emotions, interpersonal difficulties, and painful thoughts. Once this foundation is established and a genuine therapeutic relationship has been built, we will work together to change your relationship with the past.

I often use a psychodynamic approach while integrating mindfulness, cognitive, behavioral, and attachment and systems-based strategies. Ultimately, though, I feel that creating a safe and accepting space for people is most important. I believe that therapy can be a space to talk about and heal the things you feel you need to hide from others.
