I am here to support you in your healing journey! I primarily work with individuals and couples. Most trauma happens in relationships with other humans. Working and healing from this trauma is often required to break the cycle and to change. Healing work can be time-consuming and hard, but it doesn't have to be done alone. My commitment to all my clients is to bring all of the psychological knowledge I have gained in school, life experience, and continued research into our therapy work. If we agree to work together I am consistent and available for the healing work week in and week out.
I provide therapy for individuals and couples who are in their healing process. Together, we work to create a safe space to address a variety of experiences including; anxiety, depression, and childhood trauma. I utilize a combination of therapeutic tools and radical honesty to promote healing, insight, changes, and wellness.
I am here to hold space for your journey and support your healing process. The vision is to work toward healing and improving your quality of life. I believe that healing is possible for you! I am excited by the idea of being a part of your healing journey. Schedule a free therapy consultation to explore the starting therapy.

I have years of experience working with anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression but from a holistic perspective. Trauma is complex, and we need to create space to explore all the layers in therapy. This is true for both couples and individuals. Trauma can make it hard to have meaningful relationships and this can be really painful. Healing can open new doors for meaningful connections.

I am a relational psychodynamic therapist. I tend to work with a depth focus and prefer to work on a weekly bases and for the long term. I believe that it is essential to explore the past as there is often a connection to present issues you may be experiencing. Depth work is about going beneath the surface and I believe there are not quick fixes to complex long term issues.
