I work with people seeking to understand how their relationship with the world shapes their quality of life. We’ve all faced trauma, and we all carry a vision of who we want to become. Exploring that meaning with a therapist can be both difficult and deeply rewarding. I meet each person with compassion and curiosity, honoring how their unique experiences have shaped—and continue to shape—their truth, self-understanding, and life.
I am a pre-licensed associate clinician at Mindful Therapy Pacific Northwest and a graduate of Pacifica Graduate Institute. My training includes Depth Psychology, Ecopsychology, Primary Attachment Therapy, and Hakomi—a client-centered approach that engages the unconscious, imagination, and mind-body connection in treatment.
My practice is rooted in relational integration. I support clients in reconnecting with the wholeness of their lived experience while tending to present goals and concerns. Together, we create an open, compassionate space to explore, heal, and discover supportive ways of living in relationship with all parts of yourself.
