Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and an EMDR Certified Therapist. My approach is rooted in helping clients understand and heal the ways their past experiences continue to shape their present. In addition, I incorporate somatic approaches and, when appropriate, nature-based therapy to support clients in their healing. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, identity exploration, relationship and marriage concerns, childhood trauma, and the lasting effects of being raised by emotionally immature parents.

My approach to therapy

As both a therapist and a parent, I understand how profoundly our own experiences influence the adults we become and the patterns we hope to change for the next generation. Many parents quietly struggle with overwhelm, identity shifts, anxiety, or unresolved trauma while caring for their children.

What you can expect from me

As a queer clinician, I also provide an affirming, judgment-free space where LGBTQIA+ individuals can feel seen, heard, supported, and safe. I focus on making sure our therapeutic relationship is built, foundation first. You should always feel you are being treated with dignity and respect and have the power to choose the therapist that is right for you.
