Great to meet you!

I received my MA in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology in 2018. I completed the Trauma-Focused Narrative Therapy Certificate with The Allender Center in 2019 and the Trauma-Focused Narrative Therapy Training with the Art of Living Counseling Center in 2021. I work with individuals recovering from anxiety, childhood abuse, trauma, and PTSD, with a focus on the LGBTQ+ community. This work is one of the most worthwhile investments you will make in your life!

A bit about my approach to therapy

Each of us comes with a unique story that includes our family of origin and our cultural upbringing. These factors powerfully shape what we come to believe about ourselves, our world, and each other. In our work, we will get curious about the dynamics within your family of origin and culture that have shaped what you believe about yourself, and how you show up in relationships today. This includes bringing awareness to the truths that your body holds that you may have become disconnected to.

What you can expect from our first session

Nothing is more worthwhile than recovering the desire and freedom to live your life fully. In our work, will enter the narratives of heartache and trauma that have shaped how you view yourself and your world. Here, we get the chance to offer care, kindness, and truth to the places you have been wounded. When you challenge the messages that trauma has left behind, you then get to choose which ones you embrace and which ones you release.
