Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Psychotherapist and Certified Trauma Specialist with extensive experience working in both public and private behavioral health settings. I specialize in trauma, law enforcement and first responders, eating disorders, and prenatal/postpartum mental health. My approach blends deep emotional insight with practical, grounding tools that clients can use in real life. I’m warm, direct, and collaborative, and I focus on helping clients feel truly seen, supported, and understood. My goal is to create a space where healing feels possible and sustainable.

My approach to therapy

My approach is direct, empathetic, and grounded in trauma-informed care, with a dose of humor when it’s needed. I focus on helping clients understand their patterns and learn practical tools they can use right away. Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and aimed at helping you feel more regulated, clear, and connected to yourself.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a warm, direct conversation where I gather information about what’s going on and what you need most right now. We’ll clarify your goals, explore what’s been getting in the way, and identify your strengths. I’ll offer initial insights and make sure you leave with a clear understanding of the path forward. By the end of the session, we’ll have a solution-focused plan that feels manageable, supportive, and tailored to you.
