Great to meet you!

I work most often with trauma and mood disorders to target what is getting in the way of the life you want to live. I utilize practical skills in DBT, EMDR along with parts work to dig deeper in understanding your full Self as a curious, whole, unique and compassionate being.

My background in intensive outpatient settings, Autism clinics and personal mental health healing and familial suicide loss are just a few aspects that inform my practice, as well as make me human alongside you. You may find I bring in a bit of humor in our work together as a characteristic to bring together healing in pain.

In addition to my passion in working with complex trauma and PTSD, I specialize in mood disorders, dissociative disorders, relationships, first responders, panic, anxiety, self harm, body image and Autism Spectrum/neurodivergence.

My approach to therapy

I approach therapy through our relationship and being real, genuine humans in this life together. I believe attachment is a foundational place where we begin to understand ourselves in and through relationship. I am neurodivergent affirming, and I encourage you to bring in your full self, you are not "too much" you are just as you ought to be!

What you can expect from me

I am hopeful to find healing with you, you are not alone in this journey. Maybe you find yourself feeling overwhelmed with intense emotions, numb or just surviving. Maybe there are parts of yourself that you have not explored yet that leave you feeling misunderstood within yourself and in relationships. The repetitive invalidating environments and traumas keep us in this cycle. We will work to gently challenge and understand behaviors, thought patterns and parts of yourself. Through the therapeutic relationship our goal is to collaboratively find the authentic you and begin to heal who that person is.
