Great to meet you!

Life can be overwhelming at times- let's figure this out together. I am an anti-diet, intersectional, and trauma-informed social worker. I use an individualized approach to support your goals, challenge unhelpful patterns, and empower you to be your own therapist and biggest advocate.

Everyone comes to therapy for a different reason- and though sometimes that reason is unknown, most of us desire to live a fulfilling life that feels like it matters. I hope we can help you understand yourself and your worth in our big world. I will commit to your experience and my own deconstruction in our work together. Let's get this new chapter started!

My approach to therapy

Therapy is a cooperative process in which you are the expert on you. My job is to listen without judgement and ask questions with compassion and curiosity. I will also offer perspectives, skills, and concepts while your job is to decide what to keep, what to let go of, and what is best for you at a pace that feels safe and respectful. I use a myriad of methods with folks, but tend towards emotional processing theory, ACT, EMDR, IFS, and positive psychology. I also offer CBT and DBT-based skills and concepts as well as ERP for those interested.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will introduce ourselves to one another, discuss confidentiality and safety, what you hope to get out of our time together, your interests, and assess together if we are a good fit to continue to work together.
