I hold a warm and non-judgmental space while we move towards your goals together. My approach to treatment involves us reflecting on how your life experiences and environments have contributed to your emotional, behavioral, and psychological responses. From there, we can learn what works for you, what doesn't, and what you want to change. My perspective is informed by cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy, which means we have multiple pathways for creating your treatment roadmap.

My approach is deeply relational, whether working with couples, families, or individuals. I prioritize connection and communication by drawing from the evidence-based frameworks of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman to help couples navigate conflict. As a Dance/Movement Therapist, I integrate this relational focus with a holistic perspective, where the body becomes a powerful tool for healing and growth. I believe in harnessing the mind-body connection and our inherent resilience to support well-being.

From my lived experiences and years of helping others, I know that putting yourself first and asking for help can bring up a lot of fear or shame. I spent a lot of my time caring for others at my expense. Walking on eggshells and taking blame or responsibility for others' emotional reactions are how I shrank myself so others have room. My inner bully would be tough on me if being a caretaker was not my number one priority. I slowed down and explored myself through community support, therapy, and meditation. It takes a lot of courage to be seen! I strive to create a space where you can be seen, and your voice heard.
