Great to meet you!

I have extensive experience working with addiction, trauma, and dual diagnosis. I’m especially passionate about helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves begin to make sense of their experiences and build a more stable, meaningful life.

My approach to therapy

I work with teens and adults navigating trauma, addiction, emotional intensity (including borderline traits), and neurodivergence. I offer LGBTQIA+ affirming care and work best with clients who want collaborative, longer-term support.

What you can expect from me

My approach is collaborative, direct, and compassionate. I integrate trauma-informed care, CBT, and EMDR-informed techniques to support both insight and real-life change. I don’t take a rigid, homework-heavy approach—instead, we focus on building skills and understanding in a way that fits naturally into your daily life.

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and what’s been going on in your life. My focus is on creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and not judged. We can figure out goals and next steps together over time.
