Being a therapist means being open, non-judgmental, supportive, informative, and humble. I realize that each individual is an expert in their own life, and I encourage individuals to develop their own goals based on their individualized needs. I specialize in working with individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+, individuals who have experienced emotional abuse, individuals struggling with a sense of secure attachment within relationships, and individuals with a history of self-harm and/or suicidal ideation. I also specialize in working with individuals who struggle with anxiety disorders, mood disorders, substance use disorders, trauma, and relationship/family conflict. Therapy is most effective when individuals actively engage in their treatment, and I hope to be able to provide tools and coping mechanisms to help clients reach their goals.

Most often, I utilize Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, Acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, and talk therapy. As well as a host of various techniques to provide you and your family with the best outcome possible. You are the expert of your life.

Regardless of wherever reading this bio leads you, you are worthy of support. You are worthy of love, connection, joy, and meaning. It takes immense courage to take that first step and begin searching for a therapist. I honor that. Whether or not that is me, I hope you walk away from this page empowered in your search. You deserve it. I have a particular interest working with trauma. I am trained in EMDR for trauma reprocessing. I have worked extensively with individuals who have experienced religious trauma and are leaving high demand faiths or cults. I have also worked with trauma in mothers, LGBTQ+ folks, couples, and those with sexual issues. In the words of Joseph Campbell “the privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.” To reiterate, you are worthy. I’m glad you are here. Life can get better, and I’d be honored to work beside you and determine how we can make it so.

I am skilled in anxiety and stress interventions as well as have a good listening ear. My goal is to have you leaving each session feeling heard and empowered. Sometimes life is hard! I am here to help navigate what feels challenging and join you in finding your path.

Every person can achieve a sense of empowerment and self-assuredness. To achieve that, I strive to make sure my clients feel heard, validated, and valuable. Also, I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths and overcome that which may be holding them back from being their most authentic and fulfilled selves. I feel honored to hear and be entrusted with the words, thoughts, and feelings of those I provide service to, and I do not take that lightly. I value creating a warm and welcoming therapeutic space where you can “let your hair down” and speak freely about your dreams, fears, joys, and obstacles. I believe that kind of empathetic and non-judgmental approach to therapy is essential to developing an alliance between us, collaborating effectively, and ultimately assisting you with achieving your goals. Allow me to meet you where you are at and walk with you to where you want to go.

Coming from a spirit of warmth and optimism, I wholeheartedly believe that change is not only possible, but likely. People are resilient, and through the healing (and a little bit of humor…) that happens in the clinical space, clients can experience the growth they’ve been hoping for. I aim to leave clients with a sense that they are in a partnership with someone who is committed to their wellbeing. Throughout the years, my clients have often so generously shared with me reflections like, “You just get me” and “I feel safe”. They’ve given me the credit when, truly, the work is only possible because they invite me into knowing their wishes, strengths, and challenges. Together, we consider those echoes from the client’s past that sometimes spill into their lives today. Examining those circumstances that clients bravely come to therapy with can allow for deeper joy and peace in their lives. And when exploring those circumstances feels vulnerable, I remind clients, “No judgement here”.

My philosophy on therapy involves a creative, eclectic, and collaborative use of therapeutic styles to best match your specific needs and personality. You are a unique individual, and I am grateful for the opportunity to explore your strengths and support you in developing meaningful skills, resiliency, and lasting change. No matter who you are, where you’re from, or what you’re going through, you deserve to be helped and to be heard!

Whether it's short term therapy to help trauma processing or something more long-term, my priority is to create a welcoming, non-judgmental space to help you overcome challenges. It is possible to transform hurts, traumas, and negative conditioning into healthy new patterns. Becoming aware of and accepting your thoughts and feelings can empower you to live fully in the present moment and create new, healthier ways of coping.

If you’re carrying more than you can hold, trying to be everything for everyone, or feeling stuck in cycles of grief, fear, or self-doubt—you’re not alone. Life doesn't come with a roadmap, and sometimes the weight of expectations, loss, trauma, or uncertainty can leave you feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from yourself. Therapy with me is about creating a space where you can lay it all down—without pressure, without judgment, and without having to perform. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, healing from painful experiences, struggling with perfectionism, or trying to find your footing after being pushed into an adult role too soon, I’m here to walk alongside you. I blend body-based approaches with tools to help regulate your nervous system, build emotional resilience, and reconnect you with your sense of safety, worth, and voice. Together, we’ll work at your pace, honoring your story while building the skills and self-trust you need to move forward. I believe healing happens when you feel seen, safe, and supported. Therapy with me is real talk, real support, and real growth—no pressure to have it all figured out, just permission to show up exactly as you are. If you're ready to explore what healing could look like for you, I'm here when you’re ready.
