Great to meet you!

We all have a story- Many times what brings us to counseling is recognizing that we want a new story & we feel stuck creating one. Understanding our story facilitates making different choices for our future stories.

I respect & celebrate diversity of race, ethnicity, gender/gender identity, sexual orientation, body type/size, religion, abilities, & neurodivergence. I’m committed as a white therapist to understanding my own biases & working towards anti-racist values & actions in this practice.

My approach to therapy

Specialized training in several areas has allowed me to grow areas of interest and competency as a therapist:

IPNB (Interpersonal Neurobiology-how the brain, body, and relationships all work together)

Sandtray Therapy

Play Therapy

Circle of Security Parent Facilitator

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Certification

EMDR Integrative Team Treatment for Attachment Trauma in Children

Play Therapy

Intimacy Therapy

Trust Based Relational Intervention - TBRI Trained

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to be seen- for all parts of them- even the parts they don’t like much- are welcome. My hope is that every client finds both a really soft place to land that is warm and welcoming AND a place where growth and challenge can co-exist. We will laugh more than expected and be really brave together at dealing with the tender parts you come in with.
