Great to meet you!

From working in K-12 Special Education, coordinating family support in a substance use recovery program, and years of providing outpatient therapy, I have a wide range of experience.

My specialty areas include:

  • religious deconstruction/reconstruction
  • processing childhood trauma
  • prenatal/postpartum seasons of life
  • college/adolescent transition
  • clients with loved ones experiencing substance use disorder

My approach to therapy

In my practice, I incorporate a variety of therapeutic techniques, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, and mindfulness practices. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). My approach is person-centered, which is based on the understanding that people are naturally driven towards their full potential when given a safe and accepting environment. We will work collaboratively together, allowing you to take the lead while offering support along the way.

What you can expect from me

Our first appointment will focus on introducing you to the therapy space, getting comfortable in conversation with one another, and developing goals for your treatment. Everyone is different in their comfort level during an intake appointment, so we will go at whatever pace feels best for you!
