As a human navigating this ever-changing world, it is my belief that we each hold knowledge, power, and peace within ourselves. However, it is fair to say that we don't always feel this way. I have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, shame, depression, life change, and trauma. My therapeutic goal is to hold space for you, support you, and help you enrich your life. I am committed to social justice and believe that systemic dynamics influence a person's mental health. I continually strive to have a validating space for all identities, and I advocate for anti-oppression on both community and systemic platforms.

I am trained in Adaptive Internal Resources (AIR) Network and Trauma Focused CBT.
I believe the process of therapy is about the therapist and client joining together in a collaborative effort to work toward goals.

Sometimes obstacles get in the way of living those values and recognizing our strengths, including family, trauma, health concerns, and mental health difficulties. Through a systemic and trauma-informed lens, we will create individualized goals and approaches that best meet your needs.

I have the privilege and honor of working with individuals and couples with trauma history using Brainspotting, Narrative Exposure Therapy, and other trauma-focused modalities. I primarily work with adolescents, young adults, couples, and families; however, everyone is welcome in my space. I also work with clients who do not need trauma work and use an experiential approach to therapy. This means I show up authentically, use humor, and think systemically, not just focusing on the individual. I am currently only taking on couples and families as new clients.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma, you’re not alone. You may find yourself stuck in self-doubt, disconnected from the life you want, or struggling with persistent worry and low motivation. It’s understandable to feel uncertain about the next steps, but with the right support, healing and growth are possible. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
