“There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself. It is the only true guide you will ever have. And if you cannot hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls.” ― Howard Thurman.
I use a person-centered, holistic, and intuitive approach that honors you as the guide of your own life.
My work integrates culturally sensitive therapies, including Brainspotting, trauma-informed care, anxiety support, grief counseling, existential therapy, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, behavioral therapies, and somatic therapy.
I'm passionate about supporting individuals navigating religious trauma, leaving fundamentalist religious systems, and facing challenges related to mental health, relationships, grief, identity, trauma, and the complex experience of parenthood.

Groups
Religious Deconstruction Support Group
This group is designed to support individuals who are in the process of deconstructing their experiences within various sectors of Christianity (e.g., fundamentalist, megachurch, or conservative traditions). The group will focus on processing grief associated with these transitions, as well as providing a supportive community for those who may feel a loss of connection after leaving their previous faith communities.
