I strongly believe in listening to the little as well as the big irritations that clients bring into session, because everything is connected, and you never know what piece of the puzzle really helps bring it together to create forward movement. With a Master's degree in clinical mental health and expressive arts therapies, licensure as a registered dance/movement therapist, certificates in somatic, and focusing oriented art therapies, I embrace a broad variety of research based techniques to bring my clients a rich selection of approaches to any given challenge. I have experience in working with a broad variety of clients ranging from age 2 to 99 years of age. My work with court appointed groups and teens in a group home taught me the value of creating safe spaces for people connect with others who have similar experiences which may not be easily seen on the surface. I truly love to work with people in individual as well as group settings, as I feel both approaches offer unique benefits to be explored. It is an honor to do this work and be a part of someone's life journey, even for a brief, but meaningful time. Relational dynamics, mood disorders, trauma, adjusting to life changes, grief, eating disorders, gender transitions, autism spectrum, and psychotic symptoms are some of the primary areas I work with.

My am sessions are booked on the hour and afternoons are booked on the half-hour. Please keep this in mind if you book directly on the calendar and understand that I may contact you to shift a session time so everyone can be seen. I book clients throughout the day and don't update my calendar until the evening. It is best to email or text me to confirm availability. Thank you for your understanding. This helps me maximize my time with clients in session as I am not logging on throughout the day. Thank you. I look forward to having the honor to work with you if you choose.

The struggles we face as we travel through life may leave us feeling like a piece of the self has been cracked, chipped away, covered up, or like shadows have formed within one’s self. In relationships it may feel like there is something wrong, but difficult to pinpoint what. Whatever brought you here, you have taken the first step, moving towards becoming more whole and changing your life for the better. Through a collaborative approach, my goal is to help you put the pieces together in a way that feels best to you, so that you may move forward in your life towards a happier and more fulfilling future.

If you have experienced a trauma that is difficult to discuss, find that words lead to arguments, or have a sensation that can't be put into words, please know there are many ways to process and move towards healing without verbal discussion. In my office you can choose what you want to talk about or if you prefer to draw, move, or make music to explore it.

I view my role as your therapist to be a guide who has an abundant toolbox to help explore the paths you choose in a safe and effective manner. As a master's level LPC and R-DMT trained in expressive therapies I have tools to help in your journey. As a fellow human navigating this world, I invite you to reach out. Take those steps to living your best life

Clients can expect to take away a sense of comfort in knowing they are not alone, and have a caring guide to help them find the tools to navigate discomforts which may have challenged them for months, or even an entire lifetime. Homework is often given in the form of something to be curious about as they continue about daily life, or a new tool or skill to apply. These assignments are always given with the clause of "should you choose to accept" and a gentle warmth and kindness mixed with curiosity will be used to process the findings, even if those findings happen to be that someone did not get an opportunity to engage with the homework, forgot it, or chose not to do it. Again, I believe it is all good information, and it is a process that will unfold when approached correctly. I strongly believe that everyone holds the solutions within. It is just a matter of understanding, uncovering, or learning a new piece or approach. I don't have any vested in what works, but I have a strong passion to hold that space for people and keep trying until we find what works to help that person be the individual they wish to be, and live a life in-line with their values and goals.
