Are you seeking a creative and empowering psychologist to accompany you on a journey of insight, healing, and powerful change? My approach is integrative and based on the latest research in neuroscience, mind-body integration, and attachment theory. I am culturally informed and LGBTQ+ affirming; I will respect your unique experiences and world view. We will work closely to uncover, process, and release traumatic stress and challenge self-limiting beliefs. Work with me to develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others; build intentional creative and professional practices; cultivate a deeper appreciation for life.
I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and a trauma recovery specialist. I use cognitive, behavioral, attachment-based, and somatic intervention to help you understand trauma in new ways; this helps rewrite your narrative and motives a new approach to life. I love seeing clients regain vitality, optimism and drive, and deepen relationships.
I honestly believe that our greatest challenges are often opportunities for tremendous personal growth. If you think I can help, please get in touch! I look forward to hearing from you!
