Great to meet you!

I specialize in trauma-informed therapy for individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, family conflict, life transitions, substance use, and self-harm. As a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Professional Clinical Counselor, I am passionate about helping clients heal and feel empowered through connection and collaboration. I am a Certified Domestic Violence Counselor and Disaster Mental Health Volunteer with the American Red Cross. My background in recovery, family systems, and creative direction informs a compassionate, whole-person perspective.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches to help you understand how past and generational trauma may affect your relationships, emotions, and behaviors today. I validate your lived experience and create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your story, build insight, and develop tools for healing.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will slow down, get to know what brings you to therapy, and identify goals that feel meaningful to you. Together, we will begin creating a plan that supports healing at your pace. If you are ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation.
