I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with training in both primary care and psychiatric mental health.

Therapist

Trauma, relationship issues, and a lifetime of being misunderstood can profoundly impact our emotional wellbeing and sense of self. As a board-certified therapist with 5+ years of experience, I help women with a history of trauma/codependency build confidence; reduce self-harming behaviors; and heal their relationship with themselves. I use strengths-based approaches to help you leverage your unique qualities and reach your goals. I also use relational therapy to help you identify patterns, address attachment wounds, and safely practice trust, vulnerability, and boundaries.
