Healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about reconnecting with the parts of you that have always been whole. As a therapist trained in IFS, EMDR, and Trauma-Focused CBT, I help clients understand how trauma, stress, and early experiences shape who they are today. My approach blends clinical expertise and lived experience, allowing me to see clients with both professional understanding and deep empathy. I believe healing happens through relationship—when you feel seen, safe, and understood. Together, we’ll work to quiet inner conflict, build emotional balance, and rediscover your sense of strength and self-worth.
I help clients understand how past experiences continue to shape their emotions, relationships, and sense of self today. My approach is compassionate, down-to-earth, and trauma-informed. In our work together, I’ll help you calm your nervous system, manage triggers, and rebuild trust in yourself and others.
I received my Masters in Social Work from Arizona State University, and my clinical training on the south side of Chicago.

My specialty is working with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD)—the kind of trauma that comes from prolonged stress, unsafe relationships, or experiences that made you question your worth or safety. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and Trauma-Focused CBT to help clients process painful memories, understand emotional triggers, and reconnect with their inner resilience.
