Many of my clients have come to me seeking safety with a provider who is eager to understand them after not having success with traditional talk-therapy in the past. I want to empower clients to advocate for their needs, confront their fears, and overcome obstacles to achieving their goals. I have worked extensively with individuals from diverse backgrounds, seeking support for a variety of concerns including relationship issues, and life transitions, to crisis prevention/intervention, and childhood sexual abuse, emotional neglect, medical trauma, domestic abuse, intergenerational trauma, and disability/race/gender-based violence.
My specialization is in trauma-focused therapy and integrative approaches tailored to each client's individual needs. It is my priority to facilitate a safe, validating, and affirming environment, while equipping clients with the tools necessary to navigate life's challenges and address painful feelings like guilt and shame.
I understand the importance of finding a provider who listens to you with a sense of curiosity, making you feel heard and seen. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, personal values, strengths, and motivators. I am currently welcoming new clients and hope to collaborate in your journey toward growth and healing!

I am a neurodivergent-affirming therapist who celebrates my clients' neurocognitive differences. I help clients foster the confidence to work with those differences and improve their quality of life, rather than struggling to fit in or meet unrealistic expectations placed by others and society.
