Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in chronic pain treatment and multicultural therapy.

My approach to therapy

I have a direct and down-to-earth approach with clients. I like to keep it honest with people, while always adding a little humor.

I am certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy, which is an evidence-based treatment for chronic pain. PRT uses a combination of psychological techniques and somatic-practices that help chronic pain sufferers find lasting relief from pain.

I also have extensive experience working with trauma-survivors, and working with diverse communities.

What you can expect from me

With Pain Reprocessing Therapy, clients re-train their brain, soothe the nervous system, and reassess pain with a lens of safety, as a means of reducing pain symptoms. Clients can expect to talk about their pain story, learn skills to practice in and out of session to help soothe their nervous system, and change their relationship to their pain.

I believe clients are the expert in their experiences. Whether we are working on chronic pain, or talking about life-stressors, clients will walk away feeling affirmed in their experiences and knowing that they have the power to heal themselves.
