I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes deeply in people’s capacity to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, where my training emphasized on relational, trauma-informed, and socially conscious care. These are all values that continue to guide my work today.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and trauma; including childhood wounds, relational trauma, and complex PTSD. Often these experiences leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves, others, and the world around us. You may feel stuck in patterns that once helped you survive but no longer served you. My goal is to offer a space where you don’t have to carry those experiences alone, where you can gain insight into what may be standing between you and the life you imagine, and begin to reconnect with the strengths that have always been within you.
