Experience with providing both individual and group therapy for adolescents and adults dealing with trauma, substance use, PTSD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relational problems.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or struggling with self-doubt, or you're navigating the unique challenges of being BIPOC in spaces that do not always feel safe. I see you. I understand how heavy it can all feel. Therapy is a space just for you- a place where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment. Together, we'll work through the fear, the self-criticism, and the patterns that no longer serve you. You deserve to heal, to grow, and to step into the confident, empowered version of yourself. And I'm here to help get you there.

Most of my experience since 2009 has been with groups, adults, and adolescents with self-harming behaviors, relationship issues, behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders.

My approach is to team with you to identify goals and help you create meaningful techniques that will assist you in reaching your goals.

I specialize in treating complex trauma, dissociation, substance use, and coping with neurodivergent identities.
I am an empathic therapist with 19 years therapy experience. Clients often come to me with a loss of (or never developed) sense of self, difficulties in relationships, and feeling unsafe in the world due to trauma and neurodivergence. I assist my clients in transforming their deepest pain into their greatest strengths, finding passion in life, and embracing their identities. They learn to have deep meaningful relationships with self & others. Clients expand their perspectives on what is possible in this life. I also love working with therapists; their personal work enhances their own practice!

Six years ago, I began working in substance use disorder treatment centers in various roles.
My goal is to give my clients something tangible to find some immediate relief. I use a collaborative process to find solutions that make sense to clients. I often work through a solution-focused lens and find it important to explore our past but not spend all of our time there.

This can include healing from trauma, substance use/misuse, career issues, strengthening coping skills, and honing a growth mindset.
I work to build an authentic relationship with each person based on attention, empathetic listening, and working together to find the words that name the story of your experience as you have lived it. As we reread and rewrite your story together, we will hold and honor the complexity of your experiences, hopes, and fears with a perspective of compassion.
