About

Welcome to my profile! I'm happy you're considering me as you begin your healing process. I prioritize creating a comfortable space to help make the process feel less daunting. I can adapt to a more directive approach or client centered approach depending on your preference. I use a trauma-informed lens that considers the root of your current stressors and symptoms. I work with teens and adults seeking therapy for relationship dynamics, stress/anxiety, depression, family/life transitions, identity development, ADHD management, and trauma. I am a proud LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist. I focus on implementing a few techniques including Brainspotting, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) in my practice. I enjoy helping clients identify their strengths and values to develop treatment and life goals.
