I primarily work with neurodivergent folks, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people practicing relationship anarchy or non-monogamy, and individuals navigating grief and loss. My approach is grounded in culturally responsive care that honors intersectionality and acknowledges the broader systems that shape our lives. I'm passionate about supporting people through identity exploration, whether that’s related to gender, sexuality, relationship structure, or neurodivergence. If you are struggling with self-harm, chronic suicidal thoughts, trauma, eating concerns, depression, or anxious thoughts, I have the experience to help.

Navigating the waters of life is not a simple task and the tides are ever changing. With this in mind, I like to frame therapy around addressing the inevitable discomforts of life in effective ways to make room for values-based living. I believe whole heartedly in the importance of a strong, trusting, and fun (when appropriate) therapeutic relationship. Therapy does not have to be stuffy and clinical. This is a space to better understand our patterns, how they play out in this complex world, and tools to readjust our sails. This looks different for every individual, which is why I like to take an eclectic approach to treatment.

Want to work on your relationships? I’m so glad you found me! I’m a relationship therapist. What does that mean exactly? I’m here to help folks reach a place of security and consistent harmony. This could mean working on communication skills, being life-long learners about one another, building intimacy (sexual and non-sexual), and learning what it means to regulate yourself and co-regulate with one another. Being in a couple does not mean that you should not be in conflict - in fact, I see conflict as a vital sign to a relationship. My top priority for couples is to become better at conflicting with their partner.

My role is to provide feedback, guidance, and a safe environment to process that journey.

Has IFS has helped you understand yourself more deeply, but you still don't feel the ease you seek? That makes sense. Some parts need more time, space, and gentleness to integrate than a weekly hour allows. In a somatic-focused IFS intensive, we can take our time. We can help your parts feel their way into trusting the safety that's available inside of you now. It’s from there that peace becomes possible.
If this resonates, I’d love to talk about the ways an intensive could support your process

Women carry so much. The invisible mental load (whether balancing fertility treatments, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, or daily responsibilities) can become overwhelming. You may have been encouraged to shrink yourself to make others comfortable, but there’s no award for suffering silently. Asking for help isn’t giving up, it’s giving yourself the care you deserve.
If you’re navigating infertility, IVF, reproductive challenges, pregnancy loss, postpartum adjustment, or body image struggles, I see you, I believe you, and I’m here to support you. Your story is valid, and it deserves individualized, compassionate care.

My ideal client is a Gen Z or Millennial woman—often a mother—navigating trauma, stress, or life transitions. She’s tired of just surviving and is ready to heal, set boundaries, and break generational cycles.
She wants a therapist who understands her culturally and emotionally without needing long explanations.
Her goals may include inner child healing, managing anxiety, or reclaiming her peace. She’s seeking therapy to feel whole—for herself, her children, and her future. That’s who I created Restoring Destiny for.

As someone undergoing cancer treatment, you feel vulnerable, scared, anxious, and uncertain about your life. The constant worry and invasive treatments often ignite feelings of hopelessness, regret, powerlessness, guilt, and loss. Because of this tornado of emotions, you lose control over what you thought your life would be. Such chaos is encapsulated in the following poem;
"Touching the surface and the depth of things,
Instinctively responsive unto both,
Tasting the sweets of being and the stings,
Sensing the subtle spell of changing forms,
Like a strong tree against a thousand storms."
