About My Clients

I work with people to safely process and understand the roots of painful patterns, and partner with them as they step forward into a more connected, empowered version of themselves. That may be someone early in recovery, someone who has endured a loss, someone navigating a life transition, or someone feeling stuck overall. My clients are deeply committed to growth and healing, and together, we see that healing is possible.

My Background and Approach

I'm deeply committed to supporting clients through transformative healing work. My practice attracts individuals ready to explore, understand, and resolve their complex challenges. My goal is to empower you with practical tools you can use daily – not just during sessions. Throughout our work, you’ll find compassionate partnership grounded in evidence-based techniques and tailored to your unique needs. Drawing from advanced trainings & years of experience, I offer clients the following: - Ways to help you manage & alleviate symptoms in the moment, giving you long term relief - Ways to address the pressing challenges head-on, while also connecting the current symptoms to the more complicated history of WHY symptoms show up - You'll gain insights into the science of fear, understand what happens to your body when anxiety arises, and learn techniques to calm both your mind & nervous system This is more than just therapy, it's a collaborative journey towards sustainable healing & change.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the power of human connection and the courage it takes to show up authentically. As a therapist, my passion extends beyond the therapy room to the vibrant experiences that make life rich and meaningful. As I grow and change as a therapist, I want to also focus on life and finding pleasure! I work to remember to keep my self-care high and to maintain a connection with myself outside the therapeutic sphere. I recharge through eating and making delicious meals, music and dance, my family, and nature! I believe in the inherent worth of every human being. I'm dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive space for clients of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. This is more than a practice for me; it's a heartfelt commitment to creating a more just and connected world. If these values resonate with you, I invite you to reach out and explore how we might work together on your journey toward healing and wholeness!
