No one person's story is the same, and individual experiences are often impacted by life stressors, challenging circumstances and uncertainty regarding the path towards healing. My work is primarily focused on healing from trauma and shame, addressing anxious and depressive symptoms that arise from adverse life experiences. The people I work with often experience low self-worth, struggle with relationships or have difficulties accessing coping mechanisms to manage symptoms. I work with individuals across the lifespan, incorporating appropriate modalities to fit the unique needs that arise during different seasons of our life.

Transitions are part of life, and yet some feel overwhelming. At such times, you may need a community to walk alongside you. In reaching out, you have taken that first courageous step toward healing. Together we will explore how you might get back on track, or perhaps forge a new path. Through compassionate exploration of your strengths, you may find it is possible to find your footing. I specialize in adults from all walks of life and challenges that any stage may present, such as anxiety, depression, dual diagnoses, life transitions, parenting, relational challenges, somatic, spirituality, trauma-focused, women's issues, and more.

Is your child currently having a hard time with peer relationships and emotional regulation? Are you tired of living in the past while craving freedom in the present moment of past traumas?

The concept of "I will be worthy when..." is a common narrative that many individuals hold. Trauma has a way of distorting our perception of self-worth, making us believe that accomplishing specific goals or fulfilling certain expectations will validate our worth. However, this perception often leads to a trade-off, where we compromise our authenticity for a validation that may not bring the fulfillment we seek. Recovering from trauma involves a gradual process where we address essential interpersonal skills that are not given qualities but need to be learned and nurtured.

My passion has always been to help people, in multiple capacities. I allow a safe space for people to vent, process and work through a variety of life struggles.

I have extensive experience working with foster youth, LGBTQ youth and underprivileged communities. Reaching out for help can be scary, but the road to healing is not far away.

I am inspired by the healing power of relationships. I specialize in helping women feel more alive and empowered, as well as helping couples reconnect and thrive. Therapy works when you and I build trusting relationship that is a catalyst for change in other relationships. My clients describe me as calm and empathetic, with a sense of humor. When you meet with me, you and I will create a safe environment where you can explore your full self and heal without judgement. With individuals I use EMDR, parts work, and other modalities to help you rebuild. With couples I use EFT, Gottman, and PACT therapies to help you reconnect.

If you're seeking compassionate support and someone who can guide you through these transitions while holding you accountable, you've come to the right place.

Do you want to declutter your assumptions and better understand others’ intentions and motivations?

They might be feeling anxious about going to school or having a hard time opening up to you about their challenges. Therapy provides the opportunity to bring you self-awareness and to help foster your connections with others.

I utilize a trauma-informed, evidence based, and holistic approach to therapy. I am passionate about supporting clients with the life-long process of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.
