My goal as a therapist is to genuinely connect with and support clients in their journey. It is a privilege to walk with others on their path towards healing and knowing themselves. I strive to make sure my clients feel seen and heard as their true selves, experience warmth and security in the counseling room, and know that I unconditionally accept them. I believe therapy should be a true partnership between myself and my client; we are a team working toward your desired healing, growth, and change. I am committed to providing a safe and inviting atmosphere for all people, identities, and needs.
I often work from a relational lens as I believe that our past and current interpersonal experiences have a significant influence in shaping how we see ourselves and the world, and are often at the root of a lot of our pain and distress. I also incorporate breathing strategies, mindfulness, self-compassion, grounding, and EMDR emotion regulation strategies.
We'll spend intentional time developing our therapeutic relationship and always move at your pace. If you're ready to start or resume your therapy journey, I’d be honored to support you. If I’m unavailable, I highly recommend my trusted colleagues at Nowlogy, who share my commitment to compassionate, effective care.

I feel especially capable to work with trauma, anxiety, relationship concerns, perfectionism, and disordered eating/body image concerns. During our initial sessions, we will focus on building a safe therapy space; starting to explore and gain insight into your concerns and needs; developing initial coping tools; and creating a treatment plan to help you heal, alleviate symptoms, and move forward.

I combine gaining deeper understanding into the origin and ongoing impact of the concerns bringing you to therapy with the development of coping strategies to alleviate daily symptoms and challenges. I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. We'll work together to determine your specific goals, what type of treatment approach fits you best, and adjust as needed
