Great to meet you!

I’m a Clinical Supervisor, Clinical Director, and entrepreneur with a specific set of skills designed to help you get real results. I work best with clients who are ready to put in the work—those who want to dig deep, challenge patterns, and create meaningful change in their relationships and lives. I take a no-nonsense, practical approach to therapy, blending trauma-informed techniques, EMDR, DBT, CBT, and MI to help you regulate, heal, and move forward. My style is direct yet warm, grounded in humor, authenticity, and real conversations. I can be serious and a complete goofball!

My approach to therapy

I focus on trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I take a holistic "bottom-up" approach to therapy, meaning we don't just talk about change - we create it by working with your body's responses, your core beliefs and the deeper emotional layers that drive behaviors.

What you can expect from me

My counseling style is compassionate, down to earth, casual, full of humor and warmth. In my clinical practice, I welcome ages 18+ from all backgrounds.
