Great to meet you!

I approach therapy as a collaborative experience meeting people where they're at, non-judgmentally and forming genuine relationships that cultivate wholeness. As a social worker I strive to bring awareness to the link between mental health, wellness and social justice by challenging beliefs rooted in systemic oppression. I work from a trauma-informed and relational perspective believing that it’s never too early or too late to fortify the soul.

My approach to therapy

I am a strong believer in holistic health that incorporates the mind, body and spirit. I help people understand these experiences so that they can live more authentic and effective lives. With the use of integrated skills and insight building therapies, we'll weave together self-awareness, acceptance and behavioral modification to work towards your goals and build the life you desire.

What you can expect from me

I'm a real person that believes positive change takes work and intention. Authentic relationships and dry humor are some of my favorite therapeutic tools. Send me a message, I look forward to connecting with you!
